RIVERHEAD, NY — An iconic entertainment legend is bringing his show to Riverhead Saturday night.

For one night only, The Suffolk presents "Tony Danza: Standards & Stories" on Saturday at 8 p.m. Tickets range from $65 to $95, plus applicable fees. Tickets are available online at SuffolkTheater.com.

"Combining timeless music with wit, charm, storytelling, and a dash of soft shoe and ukulele performances, Danza performs a selection of his favorite standards from the Great American Songbook while interweaving stories about his life and personal connection to the music," a release said.

The long-running hit show, which includes Danza's four-piece band, has entertained audiences around the country with The New York Times stating: “Tony’s a live wire who tap-dances, plays the ukulele, tells stories and radiates irresistible charm… He exudes the kind of charisma that can’t be taught!”

Broadway World added: "Tony Danza is as good a crooner, as good an entertainer, as any of the men in tuxes who have come before him, and that includes that famous guy from Jersey . . . It is a genuine pleasure to listen to Danza sing… The standard of excellence.”

Danza, the release said, has been one of the world's most beloved and iconic entertainers for more than 40 years.

Known for his starring roles on two of television’s most popular and long-running series, "Taxi" and "Who’s The Boss", Danza has also starred in hit films such as "Angels in the Outfield", "She’s Out of Control", "Hollywood Knights", and "Don Jon". Well-established as a song and dance man, Danza has also starred on Broadway in "The Producers", "A View from the Bridge", and most recently received stellar reviews for his performance in the Broadway musical comedy, "Honeymoon In Vegas".

He received an Emmy nomination for his guest spot on "The Practice", and recently made a special guest appearance on "Blue Bloods and Power Book III: Raising Kanan". Danza also has a "Who’s the Boss" sequel in the works, and co-stars in the upcoming 20th Century Fox feature film, "Darby and the Dead".
