Master Class with Justin Guarini – From American Idol to American Idiot and beyond!
In anticipation of his March 2 concert, Landmark on Main Street is pleased to offer a Free Master Class with Justin Guarini. This Master Class enables students of music and theater to hear Justin speak about his career and choices, ask questions and even sing a song or two together.

As American Idol's Season One runner-up (he placed second to winner Kelly Clarkson) Justin Guarini's career began with greater national recognition than he could have dreamed possible. Last year, his career took a new direction when he starred back-to-back in two Broadway musicals: Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown and American Idiot.

His latest project is to star in a fascinating and "chilling" new musical called The Ghost Brothers of Darkland County working with an incredible line-up of masterminds: music and lyrics by John Mellencamp, book by Stephen King and musical direction by T Bone Burnett.

Landmark on Main Street. FREE ADMISSION but reservations and tickets are required. Call the box office at 516-767-6444.
