From Broadway to George Town … story-telling of faith

Broadway actor Bruce Kuhn is coming to town! This will not be his first trip to Malaysia (he has performed in the Klang Valley and East Malaysia previously) but definitely his maiden visit to Penang.

Kuhn’s list of acting performances in the United States include playing Javert (the Police Inspector) and Thenardier (Master of the House) in “Les Miserables” on Broadway. He also starred in the national tour of Harry Chapin’s one-man Off-Broadway hit, “The Cotton Patch Gospel,” and performed in the national tour of “Chess,” directed by Trevor Nunn.

His one-man shows on his worldwide tours have included “The Gospel of Luke” and “Acts of the Apostles” which are told as stories in a compelling manner.

Kuhn’s gift in storytelling is one which he shares with others, via ‘Word by Heart’, an international training school (which he is a co-founder). Students around the world (from Vancouver in Canada to Oxford in the UK) have been taught via his courses, to present a gospel to an audience.

His Penang dates are from Friday (21/6/2019) to Saturday (22/6/2019) where he will be sharing his God-given talents via two monologue theatre performances and a workshop.

The Church of the Immaculate Conception at Pulau Tikus in George Town will host Bruce Kuhn and his performances.

With a donation of RM25, you get to attend all three sessions. Tickets are available during weekend masses at the church and at the parish office.

His Penang programme is as follows:

8 pm on Friday 21 June, 2019

Monologue on the Gospel of Luke

10 am on Saturday 22 June, 2019

Workshop on Memorizing & Story Telling

8 pm on Saturday 22 June , 2019

Monologue on the Acts of the Apostles

(Church of the Immaculate Conception, 1 Lorong Maktab, 10250 Penang)

One thought on “From Broadway to George Town … story-telling of faith”

  1. Gosh! Aside from memory exercises & learning more about the bible…his voice will be amazing to listen to too. Those Broadway roles are vocally challenging parts. I believe I caught him in “Chess” at The Orange County Performing Arts Center (name drop!).
