“FULL MONTY”CAST MEMBER J. MICHAEL ZYGO RELEASES COUNTRY MUSIC CD! Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre’s production of The Full Monty has audiences howling with non-stop laughter throughout the two hour performance. The production is the theatre’s 100th show and features a top notch cast with skillful acting chops and terrific voices. Cast member J. Michael Zygo plays the role of Malcom MacGregor, one of the leads in the smash hit musical. In addition to acting and singing on Broadway Palm’s stage nightly he and musical partner, Harold Barnard II recently released their first country music CD, titled “From the Road”. The talented duo goes by the name of Zygo and The Deuce. With hopes of becoming the next “big thing” in country music, they found an alliance with each other and discovered a love for writing country songs. The CD of original songs was written out of the solitude that comes with life on the road. After a year and a half of touring, experiencing life on a bus, and living out of hotels they are hoping the CD captures the spirit of life “From the Road. The CD, “From the Road” has both the traditional country music feel as well as some contemporary sounds. Both men were raised around the music of Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Alabama and Kenny Rogers, but when Mike was introduced to the newer pop and rock styles of country music with artists such as Keith Urban, he was hooked. The new CD even has a song called “Table 23” with the singers lamenting over a “Hooter’s Girl”. About the new CD Mike said, “We hope that people interested in every kind of music will find something on our album that they can appreciate, or at least tap their toes to.” Mike and his wife Jill Zygo are both performing in The Full Monty now through November 18. After each performance of The Full Monty Mike and Jill are in the Broadway Palm lobby showcasing his new CD for exiting Monty audiences. The CD, “From the Road” is also available at www.zygoandthedeuce.com. Come and celebrate Broadway Palm’s 100th production, The Full Monty, playing now through November 18, 2006.
