DOUGLAS LADNIER: HITS OF NEIL DIAMOND!

We kick off our 2026 801 Dinner & Concert Series with the electrifying tribute ‘Diamonds: The Greatest Hits of Neil Diamond’, starring Emmy nominated songwriter, Broadway baritone, and critically-acclaimed, award-winning singer, Douglas Ladnier. With his rich baritone voice and charismatic stage presence, Ladnier brings Diamond’s legendary songs to life in an evening filled with beloved hits like Sweet Caroline, Cracklin’ Rosie, and Forever in Blue Jeans.

Critics rave about Ladnier’s powerful voice and magnetic stage presence. Rex Reed of the The New York Observer praised his “matinee-idol looks, range, sensitivity and awesome taste,” while the New York Post called his voice “deep, rich and comfortably self-assured.” DC Theatre Arts hailed his performances as “the gold standard,” making this an unforgettable celebration of one of music’s greatest songbooks.

It’s the perfect high-energy kickoff to our 2026 season — celebrating the timeless music of one of America’s most iconic singer-songwriters.
