Tonight, Feinstein's/54 Below (254 West 54th Street), Broadway's supper club, will welcome back actor/photographer/producer Michael Kushner with his show Michael Kushner Sings His Hits For Pride at 9:45 PM. There is a $35-45 cover charge and $25 food and beverage minimum. For tickets and more information, please visit www.54below.com
Join Broadway legend (in his mind)
Michael Kushner as he regales his glory days on Broadway (again, in his mind) while singing the tunes that made him famous (once again... in his mind). This vaudevillian, gay romp is the perfect musical theater comedy way to celebrate Pride as we collectively recover from a global pandemic. This show was reviewed by The Jewish Journal as "not to be believed, mainly because we haven't seen it yet!" Enjoy personal and hysterical stories complete with tunes from musicals such as The Producers, I'm Getting My Act Together and Taking It on the Road, Gypsy, and more.
With a special guest appearance from
Alice Ripley,
Michael Kushner Sings His Hits For Pride features Musical Direction by Debbie Tjong, Nate Hopkins on piano, Debbie Tjong on bass, Devon Medock on trumpet, and Joe Cogen on drums.
