Laurie Beechman Theatre, presents Lindsey Alley in "BLOOD, SWEAT & MOUSEKETEARS...Now with all NEW Sweat!" on Friday, April 12th & Saturday, April 13th, 2019 at 7 p.m. During this memorable evening of booze, belting and belly laughs, former-Mouseketeer Lindsey Alley (who performed alongside Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Ryan Gosling and Keri Russell on the Disney Channel's "All New Mickey Mouse Club") takes us on a comedic musical journey...and her hilarious quest for the elusive "Happily Ever After." Brace yourself, as Lindsey puts her Disney image on the shelf and lets it all hang out...prompting her mother's unsolicited stock apology, "I tried. I tried and I failed!"

THE MUSICAL, BEACHES, THE LAST FIVE YEARS), Collaborator, David Sexton (THE NATURE OF THE BEACH, IT'S A FABULOUS LIFE, as well as MYSTIC ARCANA and LOVE IS LOVE for Marvel Comics).

MORE ABOUT THE Laurie Beechman THEATRE

West Bank Cafe opened in 1978. In 1980, The New York Times awarded West Bank two stars, which increased its visibility and attracted a wider range of diners. In her review, Mimi Sheraton described the restaurant as "a spirited, attractive [place] with...a number of exceptional dishes memorable for both originality and excellence." In this era, West Bank Cafe's owner, Steve Olsen opened the Laurie Beechman Theatre downstairs from the Cafe, which staged plays and hosted events nightly. A young Lewis Black was named playwright-in-residence; Howard Stern aired his third-annual live birthday broadcast from the theater; and the restaurant's regulars included Tennessee Williams, Arthur Miller and Bruce Willis, among others. Throughout the 1980s and '90s, the restaurant was a leader in the growing Theater District and Hell's Kitchen dining scenes. As new theaters opened in the area, the restaurant's connection to stage and screen remained strong as well. The Laurie Beechman Theatre continued to regularly stage the work of emerging writers, actors, and singers (many of whom later became stars) as well as established acts: The Who even gave four live performances at the restaurant while their musical Tommy was running on Broadway. After 38 years, the restaurant's surrounding neighborhood and America's culinary tastes have changed dramatically. West Bank Cafe has evolved along with the neighborhood and maintained a commitment to serving high-quality food in a unpretentious setting where both theater-goers and theatre stars feel at home. Located at 407 West 42nd Street, The Laurie Beechman Theatre features two shows nightly.
