Humorous, uplifting, and inspiring, I’d Enjoy Being a Girl … On Broadway! brings writer, performer, and dancer Mark C. Reis to the Colony with his solo show. Through an abundance of music and dance, the Broadway veteran explores how to continue surviving in his career and ponders how different his success in musical theatre might have been had he been a girl.

His many stage credits include productions of Fosse (Broadway), Jesus Christ Superstar, 42nd Street, Funny Girl, Paint Your Wagon (Goodspeed Musicals), Red, Hot and Blue (Paper Mill Playhouse), The Wizard of Oz (Tuacahn Amphitheatre), Elf (TUTS), Cabaret (Reprise), Chicago (several different productions and at the Hollywood Bowl), The Producers and The Wedding Singer (Musical Theatre West). Most recently Reis was seen in Mary Poppins at MTW and Spamalot with 3D Theatricals. He currently appears in the live Frozen show at Disneyland.

Said Reis, “I am thrilled to have my work included in the Colony’s It’s Showtime! series. I’ve always loved the theatre and dreamed of performing there. I never thought it could happen, but here I come!”
