Butz & Esparza Lead 54 Below Woodstock Night, 8/15

While Woodstock 1969 will probably forever be known as the ultimate rock n roll festival of all time, NYC cabaret hot spot 54 Below is lining up an impossibly impressive assortment of stars for a one night only Woodstock tribute in August, led by two-time Tony Award-winner Norbert Leo Butz and Broadway/Hollywood notable Raul Esparza.

In addition to Butz and Esparza, other participants in the ONE NIGHT OF PEACE & MUSIC: A TRIBUTE TO WOODSTOCK event include KT Sullivan, Scott Coulter, Heather MacRae and more.

The official description of ONE NIGHT OF PEACE & MUSIC: A TRIBUTE TO WOODSTOCK at 54 Below is as follows: "On August 15, 1969, the world erupted in a musical explosion when Woodstock kicked off for an unprecedented four day extravaganza in White Lake, NY. Now, 44 years later (to the day), relive highlights of that incredible weekend in the history of music when leading voices from Broadway, cabaret and jazz converge upon 54 Below for a night of peace, love & understanding. Also starring: The Audiobodies, Rex Benincasa, Carol J. Bufford, Peter Calo, Scott Coulter, Natalie Douglas, Adam Fisher, Lauren Fox, Ritt Henn, Heather MacRae, Marissa Mulder, T.

Butz will be seen later this season on Broadway in the lead role of the new musical BIG FISH, while Esparza recently finished up an onstage run as one of the stars of the Encores! Off-Center mounting of THE CRADLE WILL ROCK and will become a series regular on LAW & ORDER: SVU this season on TV, as well.
