A new Cabaret Collection is bringing Broadway, television and fashion-world names into one of Downtown Orlando’s smallest rooms this fall, with tickets already on sale for shows inside Judson’s Live at Dr. Phillips Center. Grammy- and Emmy-nominated performer Cheyenne Jackson opens the series on November 3, followed by Tony Danza on November 13 and Isaac Mizrahi on December 2, with more names expected to be announced throughout 2026.
According to WFTV, Jackson’s Judson’s Live debut arrives just after his sold-out solo performance at Carnegie Hall, and he’ll deliver two sets that night, at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., mixing jazz, pop, folk and classic show tunes with selections from Broadway. Jackson said he loves the connection a cabaret setting allows, describing how sharing stories and songs in an intimate room creates a unique kind of energy, per the station’s report.
Danza, known for his roles on Taxi and Who’s the Boss?, brings his Standards & Stories act to the room on November 13. The show blends music from the Great American Songbook with stories from his four-decade career in television and theater, backed by a four-piece band, and features him on ukulele alongside soft-shoe dancing, the same account notes. Per Cabaret Scenes, Danza has previously staged the show at top New York cabaret rooms including 54 Below and Café Carlyle.
