A VERY COUNTESS CHRISTMAS WITH LuAnn de Lesseps

NOVEMBER 30 - DECEMBER 13 AT 7:00 PM

The December 7th performance will also be livestreamed through BroadwayWorld Events. For tickets and more information, click here.

Yes, the rumors are true! LuAnn de Lesseps is returning to Feinstein's/54 Below! Everyone's favorite Countess is back for an evening of festive glitz and glamour. If there's anything that's a guaranteed good time, it's seeing LuAnn de Lesseps, star of one of the most successful franchises in television history, "The Real Housewives of New York." LuAnn de Lesseps was just ranked the #1 Housewife by TV Guide, topping all housewives across all franchised cities.

The media personality, author, actress and singer-turned-Cabaret Queen has played to sold-out crowds across the country, and now she will ring in the Holiday Season with her own special brand of cheer. The show will be helmed by popular director, Richard Jay-Alexander (Barbra Streisand, Kristin Chenoweth, Bernadette Peters, Bette Midler, Deborah Cox, Lea Salonga, Donny & Marie) and the legendary Billy Stritch (Liza Minnelli, Marilyn Maye, Linda Lavin, Christine Ebersole) serves as her Musical Director/Arranger.

The Countess promises plenty of fun, great music, and surprises. Her new single "What Do I Want For Christmas?" dropped on Friday. Written by Bruce Roberts and Billy Stritch, it features fun cameos from de Lesseps' "Real Housewives of New York City" castmates. De Lesseps describes the new track as a "fun, catchy song." With 13 Seasons of Reality TV behind her, there's plenty to talk about, not to mention all the swirling rumors that fans will want to hear about from the girl herself. LuAnn de Lesseps has had a unique and extraordinary global career before audiences discovered her on the #RHONY Bravo.

In early 2018, de Lesseps first headlined her wildly popular cabaret show at Manhattan institution Feinstein's/54 Below and around the country to sold-out performances. The elegant and stunning de Lesseps performed a range of pop tunes as well as her own original, dance floor chart-topping hit songs, "Money Can't Buy You Class," "Chic, C'est La Vie," "Girl Code," "Viva La Diva," and "Feelin' Jovani," for a surprising showcase of charisma, charm, and magnetic stage presence. It's time to dust off the diamonds and tiaras, because #AVeryCountessChristmas is one stylish night out you won't want to miss.

Natalie Walker: MAD SCENES

DECEMBER 10 AT 10:30 PM

Natalie Walker has spent much of the last year and a half somewhere outside of her body watching her brain shatter and reassemble and shatter and reassemble ad infinitum (Latin, highbrow...), so now the only thing that feels in any way grounding to her is to sing and/or scream in a basement and be witnessed throughout. Natalie Walker: Mad Scenes is an evening dedicated to the art of unhinging, and its first iteration in July was described by Stephen Mosher at BroadwayWorld as a "most thrilling and genius night of revelry [...] considered and considerate, created with the audience experience firmly at the forefront of an artistic mind."

Its second round in November has yet to be performed as of this writing, so in the event that it is a triumph: how exciting to be there for the victory lap! In the event that it is a catastrophic failure with global implications: how exciting to be there for the start of the redemption arc! Either way, come December 10th Natalie and her beloved music director/collaborator/enabler Dan Garmon will be taking the audience on a tour from hebetude to hysteria, O'Hara to Ophelia, Lucia (opera, highbrow) to Liza, Beale to Bensimon (Housewives, highbrow, taste is meaningless) and back again, but this time it's Christmas.

To conclude with a helpful analogy a la the SAT of antiquity, mad scenes : natalie :: nativity scenes : j*s*s chr*st (ever heard of him???)

Walker is accompanied by David Kawamura on guitar, Michelle Osbourne on bass, and Josh Roberts on drums.

$45 cover charge. $75 premium seating. $25 food & beverage minimum.
