David Burtka's New Show Is A Family Affair
Not only does the family of four go all out for Halloween together every year, but they also perform together.
Burtka recently revealed that he's performing in a new cabaret, and Harris and the twins will be joining him.
"So I'm doing a cabaret at 54 Below. And my husband, Neil Patrick Harris, is directing. My kids are going to be making an appearance," he recently told PEOPLE. "I'm singing a duet with my daughter, and I'm doing sort of a scene with my son."
He explained that this is an "unconventional cabaret," one that he did 12 years ago, but now has "flipped the genre of cabaret on its head."
The show is "more of like an art piece, sort of a narrative as you will," he told PEOPLE. "I don't want to give out too much, but I'm singing a bunch of new songs and it's going to be really exciting."
