LATE NIGHT: BACKSTAGE, July 2 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 Andrew Keenan-Bolger (Newsies, Mary Poppins), Anastacia McCleskey (Priscilla Queen of the Deset, Hair), ?Nicholas Rodriguez (Tarzan), Adinah Alexander (Kinky Boots), and Jon Patrick Walker (Peter and the Starcatcher). No cover charge. $20 food & beverage minimum.

LATE NIGHT: THE STUDIO: SALLY ELDMAN & DAVID ALAN THORNTON, July 3 at 9:30PM:
Two is better than one, and these two singer-songwriters prove it. Each a talent in their own right, Sally Eidman and David Alan Thornton come together to bring out new colors in each other's work. Sally is no stranger to the music scene in NYC- she packs Rockwood Music Hall and spent New Year's Eve performing with PHISH at Madison Square Garden. David's work has been heard from house shows in Brooklyn to the Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center. Now they're bringing it together for a little rock, a little folk, a little alternative, and a lot of fun. No cover charge. $20 food & beverage minimum.

And the atmosphere is warmer and sexier than in Manhattan's other major supper clubs." The New York Post calls the venue "a gorgeous new cabaret space.

It's a pleasure to share their joy." Bloomberg News calls 54 Below "the place for Broadway stars past and present to get up close and personal with audiences and material."
