The Tony Award-winning Drama Book Shop has been helping theatre artists for 99 years. Now, it needs their help after a recent water pipe burst caused extensive damage to the shop and half of its inventory. For more information on the shop and its famed history, please visit www.dramabookshop.com.

The legendary shop has been much-talked about lately, after Lin-Manuel Miranda (of Hamilton fame) launched an internet campaign to bring sales into the flooded shop. And now, on March 26th, stars of stage and shop employees will gather for a night of stories and songs to celebrate and benefit the legendary Drama Book Shop at Feinstein's/54 Below. The 7pm concert will feature many of the all-star Broadway talent who frequent the shop on a daily basis.

Set to appear in the concert are Gabrielle Ruiz (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, If/Then, In The Heights) The Skivvies, Alex Boniello (Spring Awakening), Chuck Cooper (Tony Award-winner, The Life, Amazing Grace) Bobby Cronin, David Cryer (The Phantom of the Opera, 1776, Chess) and Patti Mariano (The Full Monty, Rags, original cast member of The Music Man). Also featured are Phyllis Blanford, Britt Cryer, Janet Fanale, Alex Garcia, Kristen Gehling, James Horan, Polly McKie, The NYCity Slickers, Red Wine + Whiskey, Paul Thomas Ryan, Crystal Skillman, Vanessa Spica and Shawn Verrier with Steven Carl McCasland on piano. More names still to be announced!

The evening will also feature various auction and raffle items, including two tickets to HAMILTON, followed by a backstage meet-and-greet with the show's director, Thomas Kail.

Tickets are priced $40 (not including a $25 food/drink minimum) and all proceeds will benefit The Drama Book Shop. For reservations, please visit http://54below.com/artist/a-benefit-for-the-drama-book-shop/.

Feinstein's/54 Below is located at 254 West 54th Street between 7th and 8th Avenues, next door to Studio 54.
