NELSON IN CONCERT

music After years in front of the camera as one of TV's most popular Presenters and Interviewers, Nelson Aspen is now performing live on stage to delight audiences around the world with music, comedy and an interactive entertainment experience that takes fans beyond the red carpet. A nearly 40 year veteran of the cabaret circuit in New York City and Los Angeles, Nelson brought his One-Man show to Australia's prestigious Adelaide 2014 Cabaret Festival. It was a sell-out sensation and resulted in his return Down Under in 2015 for a spectacular concert appearance at the famed Sydney Opera House. "The Songs! The Stars! The Scoops!" offered his unique style of tuneful storytelling and improvisational audience participation in one of the world's most iconic venues. His 2017 offering "Full Circle" played to Standing Room Only crowds in NYC, LA and Philadelphia which he followed up with similar success in 2018 culminating in his West End debut at Crazy Coqs. He followed that up with two successful international tours including a coveted guest spot on the Perth Telethon in Australia and a stint with the distinguished "54 Below At Sea" series. Nelson's latest show, "A Showbiz Scrapbook," sold out weeks in advance at NYC's distinguished GreenRoom42 where he returns later this year.

"Nelson Aspen is a true showman. Prepare to have your heart sing in time with his voice."
~Melissa Doyle, TV and Radio Presenter

"Nelson Aspen engages with his crowd in a way very few stars do these days. Old Hollywood is new again and it’s Just in Time!"
~Joseph Fenity, Rolling Stone

"A gracious host with style and charm, Nelson takes storytelling another level into song, pop culture remembrance and a peek at his own life behind the camera."
~Stacey Kumagai, BrainGasm Productions

"Nelson's gatherings are like parties with old friends. Delicious tunes and lots of giggles... not to be missed."
~Teresa Earle, Sky Cinema Italy

"A thoroughly delightful musical comedy show that packed the house,"
~Robert Kotonly, The Rrazz Room, Philadelphia

"Nelson Aspen's cabaret show is a delight for the ages and is a nostalgic, warming tonic for the soul. Unmissable!"
~Victoria Arbiter, CNN

"What an enjoyable show. It's all there. Highly recommended!"
~Robert Penfold, 9 Network Australia

"A warm hearted, loving revue presented with the charm and affectionate nature of the man himself. You will know him and be seduced at the first croon."
~Lee Liberman, Trustmovies.com

"Nelson Aspen turns the room into an elegant but fun private soirée. Music and great stories combine to look so effortless but in fact are the result of unique talent and lots of hard work."
~Peter Ford, AUS Entertainment Commentator

"Aspen packed the evening with pop culture references that made the crowd cheer with laughter and joy. It felt like being at a really fun party with a group of good friends."
~We Love Soaps

"Aspen is a born performer, taking to the stage with a dazzling showbiz smile. His show is a runaway hit."
~Adelaide Now

"Finding someone in Hollywood that Nelson doesn't know is almost impossible! He's witty, likeable and simply so damn nice!"
~The Clothesline

In late 2015, he launched a sold-out three week run of his One-Man show at the Manhattan club where it all started for him, Don't Tell Mama's. Bringing in guest stars like Broadway legend Anita Gillette helped garner him glowing reviews in addition to Standing Room Only crowds that included many famous faces from the world of theatre and television.

His musical theatre roots trace back to leading roles in shows like The Boy Friend, The Fantasticks, Once Upon a Mattress and Starting Here, Starting Now but these days he's most popular just being himself: your "one degree of separation from all things showbiz." Whether he's crooning a tune with Hugh Jackman, clowning around onstage with The Wiggles, or getting the scoop from music legends like Ringo Starr, Kelly Clarkson, Harry Connick Jr, Idina Menzel, Alicia Keys or Dame Julie Andrews...Nelson consistently delivers high-energy, crowd-pleasing performances for audiences of all ages and demographics.
