Jana Robbins And Haley Swindal Return To 54 Below with WE JUST MOVE ON!  Image

Jana Robbins (Gypsy, I Love My Wife, The Tale of the Allergist's Wife) and Haley Swindal (Jekyll and Hyde, White Christmas, Sweeney Todd) will join forces and return to Feinstein's/54 Below for two unforgettable evenings with "We Just Move On! - The Songs of Kander and Ebb." The shows are slated for Thursday, August 30th at 9:30PM and Thursday, September 6th at 7:00PM. Following separate sold-out shows of their own, both Robbins and Swindal are no strangers to the Kander and Ebb catalogue. Jana appeared in two tours of Zorba and both Jana and Haley have played 'Sally Bowles' in separate productions of Cabaret. The veteran duo can currently be seen starring together in the smash Off-Broadway show, This One's For The Girls.

Joined by musical director Joe Goodrich, Robbins and Swindal's lineup of Kander and Ebb hits includes some of the composer/lyricist's most well-known tunes including "Maybe This Time," "How Lucky Can You Get," "Life Is," "A Quiet Thing," "All That Jazz" and more. Veterans of the New York Theater scene, Robbins and Swindal tell stories of their hopes, dreams, challenges and successes - onstage and off - as they move through the extensive and highly regarded catalogue of Kander and Ebb's iconic numbers.

"We are deeply inspired by Kander and Ebb's unique ability to write for strong, yet vulnerable women," Robbins and Swindal said. "Although we were born decades apart, we share the same spirit as performers, and discovered this early in our friendship. Through Kander and Ebb's beautiful music, we share our drive, our passion and our hearts."

"We Just Move On!" will play at Feinstein's/54 Below (254 West 54th Street) for two performances only. There is a $45 cover charge for the August 30th show and a $50 cover charge for the September 6th show. Both shows have a $25 food and beverage minimum. Tickets and more information are available at www.54Below.com. Tickets on the day of the performance after 4:00PM are only available by calling (646) 476-3551.
