FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, presents the latest cabaret performance from Amy Jo Jackson, host of the 54 Concert Lab and Mrs. Peacock from the 30th Anniversary Reading of CLUE..
Amy Jo Jackson - actress, singer, and notable Tall Person - returns to Feinstein's/54 Below with an all-new act of all-male material. After years of regularly playing men, boys, and Germans, she figured she'd do a whole show full of her favorite material written by and for the sterner sex. This Amazonian chanteuse always brings the party, so get ready for a no-holds-barred night of rowdy kickassery.
