Constantine Maroulis performs Thursday, Feb. 2, at the Ridgefield Playhouse.

Maroulis, who received a Tony Award-nomination for his star turn in Broadway’s “Rock of Ages,” said in a recent telephone interview that being a single dad may be full of challenges, but that his 6-year-old daughter Malena is his first priority. Maroulis brings his magnificent voice – he also starred in “Rent” on tour and “Jekyll and Hyde” on Broadway – to the Ridgefield Playhouse on Thursday, Feb. 2. New York folksinger/songwriter Brian Dunne also is on the bill.
