LATE NIGHT: BACKSTAGE, August 6 at 10:30PM:
Each week, Broadway cast members and audiences alike gather to mix and mingle at 54 Below, Broadway's most intimate haunt, located in the heart of the theatre district. Musical Director Brad Simmons keeps the house jumping from the piano, while host Susie Mosher (the love child of Joanne Worley & Paul Lynde) guides the crowd through an evening of music, mayhem and full throttle belting, with special guests from Broadway and beyond dropping in to perform. NPR had this to say: "The best thing happening right now might just be the weekly Backstage. Hosted by the ridiculously funny Susie Mosher and pianist Brad Simmons who clearly is the man, it's two feel-good hours among New York's theater people, who seem like they're having a really fine time. Can't recommend it highly enough!" At this week's Backstage is Melanie Field (Evita), JAmes Brown-Orleans (The Lion King), Christina Bianco (Newsical), Russell Fischer (Jersey Boys), Sarah Rice (Sweeney Todd), Adam Feldman (Time Out NY Soulful Troubadour), and Gaelen Gilliland (9 To 5, The Addams Family). No cover charge. $20 food & beverage minimum.
LATE NIGHT: THE STUDIO: BROADWAY TRIVIA NIGHT, August 7 at 11:30PM:
Have you often found yourself at pub quizzes or trivia nights struggling to answer questions over sports and science but dominating the Broadway/TV/Film round? Are you the token-musical theatre nerd in your group of friends who can spout off the lyricist, librettist, director, and design team of every Pulitzer Prize winning musical? Do you like friendly competition, winning prizes, and drinking delicious cocktails with Broadways best? Then this is the night for you. We're bringing your favorite game to Broadway's nightclub! Hosted by everyone's favorite Musical Theatre Historian, Writer, and Producer, Jennifer Ashley Tepper! No cover charge. 2 drink minimum.
LATE NIGHT: 15:54, August 8 at 11PM:
"In the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes." 15:54 unlocks the doors on a weekly Thursday Party at 54 Below featuring the best of New York City's cutting edge nightlife. Reinventing the magic of Studio 54, resident artists, performers, and DJ's will serve you 15 minute sets at 54 Below. This week's host, Bridget Everett, welcomes Lance Horn, Errickson Wilcox and surprise guests. $15 cover includes your first drink (well, wine, or beer).
