According to a press release announcing the performance, Mauer starred as the Phantom in the Broadway production of "The Phantom of the Opera." Broadway and National Tour credits include "Les Miserables" and "The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber." He was cast opposite his wife, Elizabeth, in the national tour of Harold Prince's "Show-boat." Other favorite roles include Jesus in "Jesus Christ Super-star," Anthony in "Sweeney Todd," and Frederick in "Pirates of Penzance."
He has sung "All I Ask of You" on ABC's "LIVE with Regis and Kathie Lee" and "The View" as well on NBC's "The Today Show" as part of the popular "Bravo Broadway!" concert series. Mauer has sung with numerous symphonies across the country, including Cleveland, Utah, and Peter Nero and the Philly Pops. He traveled extensively with Marvin Hamlisch and joined him with the Chicago and Pittsburgh Symphonies. Mauer has had return engagements with the National Symphony, Harrisburg, South Bend, New Mexico and the Florida Sunshine Pops.
"The singer has several fine CDs including 'This is the Moment,' 'Bravo Broadway' and 'Broadway's Fabulous Phantoms,'" the release continues. "This current tour is Mauer's third as a solo performer. Come and join us for a wonderful night of Broadway music in the beautiful Lakeland Union High School auditorium."
The concert is sponsored in part by grants from the Wisconsin Arts Board and the Northern Arts Council. Mauer will be conducting a clinic the following morning for area students sponsored by the St. Matthias Thrift Shop.
