Back by popular demand, Broadway, television, and film star Robert Neary creates an unforgettable tribute to one of the greatest recording artists in history with So Good! The Neil Diamond Experience, returning to the Brown County Music Center in Nashville, Ind., on Thursday, September 24, 2026. Two hours packed with 24 classic hit songs, nostalgia, multimedia, stories and trivia, and a finale that is pure Broadway caliber, this show is a true immersion into the life and career of Neil Diamond.
As a Broadway, television, and motion picture actor for over 35 years, Robert Neary creates a one of a kind production. He talks about the songs and tells stories behind them as he and the band perform songs like “Cherry Cherry,” “I Am, I Said,” “I’m a Believer,” “Solitary Man,” Holly Holy,” “Coming to America,” “Sweet Caroline” and so many more, with a surprise finale that will leave fans breathless. Born and raised in East Meadow, Long Island, Neary gained immediate success as an actor, when he was 20 years old, with a guest star role in the television series Fame, and then opposite Jason Bateman in the film, "Teen Wolf Too.” He has since gone on to guest star in over 50 television shows, including "Criminal Minds,” "Sons of Anarchy,” "The Closer,” "Grey's Anatomy,” " Blue Bloods,” "Justified,” "The Fosters,” "FBI: Most Wanted,” "Weeds,” Medium,” "NCIS" and "NCIS New Orleans.” He landed his first Broadway show in 1996, starring in “Smokey Joe’s Café,” and then toured as the evil Zoser in Elton John’s Broadway hit “Aida.” He understudied the lead role of Sonny in the Broadway smash, “A Bronx Tale, The Musical.” Neary grew up listening, mimicking, and creating his style to only two people in the music world: Elvis Presley and Neil Diamond.
Widespread critical praise calls this show “The most authentic and professional tribute to Neil Diamond and delivers nothing short of a true Neil Diamond concert experience.” The concert has been filmed as a documentary feature and is now streaming on Amazon Prime Video, where it continues to draw rave reviews (view the trailer here).
