Henry L. Washington known as “Nugget” was drawn to the entertainment world the moment he witnessed an electrifying performance by the late Michael Jackson. At that instant he knew what he wanted to be when got older, a “Superstar”. Musically inclined at the age of 3, he performed his own concerts in the family room with only Ninja Turtle action figures as his audience beating on his mothers’ pots and pans with kitchen utensils, until she was forced to buy him his first drum set. Though Washington is only 5’3, his gigantic stage presence makes up for his stature. He debuted in Nate Jacobs 50s Jukebox Revue, followed by a handful of exciting shows such as Best Of Stevie Wonder, Purlie, Marvin Gaye: Prince of Soul, and Soul Crooners/ Light Up The Night, to name a few. Washington has enjoyed every second of being part of the WBTT family and wishes to continue to share his gifts, talents, and warming smile on stage.
