54 BELOW SHOW, Hosted by Marc Shaiman, Gets Postponed Due to Illness

54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club, has announced that the launch of their new late night event, "The 54 Below Show," will be postponed. Originally scheduled to launch tomorrow night, Friday, October 17 at 11:30PM, the event has been postponed as inaugural host, Tony Award winner Marc Shaiman (Hairspray, Catch Me if You Can) is ill and unable to perform. A new date for the "The 54 Below Show" will be announced soon.

Patrons who purchased tickets for the October 17 event can exchange their tickets for another upcoming performance at 54 Below or receive a full refund.

Before "The Tonight Show," before "Saturday Night Live," before "Your Show of Shows" and "The Ed Sullivan Show," variety shows played live in venues across America. Matching the humor, quick pace, and familiar faces of a televised variety show with the intimate, underground feel of a supper club, "The 54 Below Show" will bring the live variety show back to its roots with an only-in-New York experience not to be missed.

54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, is the new performance venue in the grand tradition of New York City nightlife. A few blocks from the heart of Times Square and just below the legendary Studio 54, 54 BELOW is a classically designed state-of-the art nightclub in the theatre district that hosts audiences with warmth and style. The venue provides a food and beverage menu from early evening through the wee hours of the morning that is worthy of the world-class entertainment on the stage. In their description of 54 BELOW, The New York Times writes "the club has the intimacy of a large living room with unimpeded views and impeccable sound; there is not a bad seat. Its sultry after-hours ambience is enhanced by brocade-patterned wall panels planted with orange-shaded lanterns. And the atmosphere is warmer and sexier than in Manhattan's other major supper clubs." Located at 254 West 54th Street, 54 BELOW features up to three shows nightly with cover charges ranging from $15-$95.
