As BroadwayWorld previously reported, acclaimed singer and pianist Michael Feinstein is adding his moniker to Manhattan's 54 Below, which will now be called Feinstein's/54 Below. The cabaret bigwig, known for his interpretations of the Great American Songbook, is partnering with "Broadway's Supper Club", returning to the city after his original NYC hub, Feinstein's at Loews Regency, closed in 2012. He will appear twice each year beginning this winter; his first engagement is slated for December 20-30.
Feinstein said in a statement: "In the grand tradition of The Copacabana, Reno Sweeney, The Stork Club and yes, Feinstein at the Regency, I've watched 54 Below light up Times Square as the number one destination for live entertainment and great food. I am thrilled to join the Tony Award winning team behind 54 Below's success and look forward to our new adventure together."
Feinstein's/54 Below will present iconic and rising stars from the worlds of Broadway and popular music. Feinstein will perform engagements at Feinstein's/54 Below throughout the year, as well as present some of his legendary friends.
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. Located at 254 West 54th Street.
