Seen recently on Broadway as the 1980s diva Sherrie in Rock of Ages now Kate Rockwell (Bring it On: The Musical, Hair, Grease: You're the One That I Want) is ready to bring you back to the days of big hair and big Broadway musicals in her new show, "Broadway Baby Of The 80s". Kate will return to the 54 Below stage in her debut solo show as she uses her powerful voice to explore gems of the 1980s from musicals like Dreamgirls, Miss Saigon, March of the Falsettos and more. This pop-Broadway diva is going back to her roots to sing some of the biggest hits of 1980s Broadway - after all, she did learn to sing from listening to the original cast recordings of Phantom of the Opera and Les Miz!
