The Doo Wop Project is a group of talented, charismatic and engaging Broadway stars from smash hit shows like “Jersey Boys,” “Motown: The Musical,” “Beautiful” and “A Bronx Tale.” The group was and instant hit after performing in September of 2024 as part of the pops series, with many audience members asking for them to be invited back.
Backed by an all-star band, The Doo Wop Project vocalists will get everyone into the holiday spirit with old school classics like The Drifters’ version of “White Christmas,” The Temptations’ take on “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer,” the Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons’ version of “Santa Claus is Coming to Town.”
In addition, the group will offer doo wop takes on contemporary hits like Donny Hathaway’s “This Christmas” and the Wham! hit “Last Christmas.”
The Doo Wop Project begins at the beginning, tracing the inception of group singing developed by inner city African Americans performing tight harmonies on a street corner to the biggest hits on the radio today.
Their journey started with foundational tunes from groups like the Crests, Belmonts and Flamingos through their influences on the sounds of Smokey Robinson, The Temptations, and The Four Seasons and grew to encompass “DooWopified” versions of modern tunes. The group was so successful that it became the subject of a PBS special concert event.
The Doo Wop Project brings unparalleled authenticity of sound and vocal excellence to recreate — and in some cases entirely reimagine — some of the greatest music in American pop and rock history.
This DFT Communications Pops Series event is sponsored by Bahgat and Laurito-Bahgat, CPAs as part of the 2025-26 Lake Shore Bank Season at Rockefeller Arts Center.
