Overview

NEW DATES- Due to an artist schedule conflict, GET UP, STAND UP: An Encyclopedia of Soul has been postponed to FEB 17-19, 2023!

Hamilton and Into The Woods star Joshua Henry made his POPS debut on July 3, 2921 with electric takes on “Tomorrow,” “Feeling Good,” and “Uptown Funk.” As he left the stage to a standing ovation, he remarked: “And I didn’t even do my James Brown.”  

Now, Joshua grooves through his very own encyclopedia of soul! The program covers favorites like “Heard it Through the Grapevine,” “A Change is Gonna Come,” and “Let’s Get it On,” celebrating the sounds of funk, R&B, and soul. He can sing Marvin, he can sing James, and he can sing Sam … all with his own swagger and swing!  

Plus, The Philly POPS will open each half of the program with an original instrumental piece, flavored with the soul of the nation.
