BWW TV Exclusive: Donna McKechnie Reveals Details on Upcoming 54 Below Show- SAME PLACE: ANOTHER TIME!

On January 2-6, Tony-winner Donna McKechnie will grace the stage of 54 Below in a brand new show: a musical déjà vu celebrating the scintillating 70′s in New York City - the heyday of Studio 54. McKechnie, best known the world over for creating the role of Cassie in A Chorus Line, is also well-known for her Broadway appearances in State Fair, On the Town, Company, Promises, Promises and How To Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. For these five very special performances, Donna will salute this remarkable era via the music of Jim Croce, Peter Allen, Marvin Hamlisch, Billy Strayhorn, and Stephen Sondheim, with arrangements and music direction by John McDaniel.

BroadwayWorld's Richard Ridge just chatted with the Broadway legend about the upcoming gig and you can check out the full interview below!
