As a longtime collaborator with the legendary Barry Manilow, Sussman's success as a songwriter includes not only pop music juggernauts but also a litany of major animated film theme songs, musical books, and his most recent passion project and Broadway success, Harmony, A New Musical.
Harmony is a compelling collaboration between the renowned Sussman and Manilow. It’s been captivating audiences with a true story and real-life characters most of us know nothing about. The celebrated song-writing duo hopes to change that with an emotional stage experience that will finally grant the show's protagonists their rightful place in entertainment history.
I had the pleasure of discussing this new endeavor with Sussman. He shared that it took years to complete, and for him, as a proud Jewish American, it was so much more than just another musical.
A special thank you to Bruce for also allowing me a totally frivolous fanboy moment as I could not resist asking him about his iconic co-written Barry Manilow hit "Copacabana!"
