NEWSIES' Brendon Stimson, GHOST's Constantine Rousouli and More Set for HALF HOUR Concert

On August 19th at 7pm, BroadwayUnderstudies.com has invited some of Broadway's most talented understudies to the stage of the Laurie Beechman Theatre to share their rare talent-the ability to perform at a second's notice. They'll be thrown into the fire in "Half Hour: A Last Minute Concert," a show where even they don't know what they'll be singing before they step up to the microphone. The audience will get to vote on what song each performer will sing.

Performers include: Allison Blackwell (Porgy & Bess), Will Blum (Book of Mormon), Garett Hawe (Newsies), Carly Hughes (Ghost), Stephen Mark Lukas (Book of Mormon), Corey Mach (Godspell), Matthew Marks (Book of Mormon), Julia Mattison (Godspell), Constantine Rousouli (Ghost), Jack Scott (Newsies), Brendon Stimson (Newsies), Julius Thomas III (Porgy & Bess), and Laurie Veldheer (Newsies).

The concert is produced by Shoshana Feinstein and Karen Marshall with direction by Max Friedman, musical direction by Zack Zadek, and will feature Jeremy Yaddaw on drums and Charlie Rosen on bass.

After years of trading rumors with fans, Shoshana Feinstein and Karen Marshall started BroadwayUnderstudies.com as a way to aggregate and celebrate the performances of Broadway's most under appreciated talent: the understudy. Follow Broadway Understudies on Twitter @understudies for the latest information on how to catch your favorite understudy in the role of a lifetime.

Cover charge is $10 with a $15 food/drink minimum. Please call (212) 695-6909 to make reservations.
