Feinstein's/54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club, presents Almog Pail in "Me, Myself and Rita" on April 20th, 2107. Join actor, writer and singer Almog Pail in an unconventional musical storytelling by 1940's Hollywood's pin-up Rita Hayworth, inspired by true events.

In "Me, Myself and Rita," Rita Hayworth (interpreted by Almog), is taking the audience on a journey full of musical nostalgia, dance and magic. Characters from her past come to life ... dance partner Fred Astaire, scandalous lover Orson Welles, and more. Almog will interpret songs from Rita's most highly rated films, such as Put The Blame on Mame ("Gilda"), Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered ("Pal Joey") and Please Don't Kiss Me ("The Lady from Shanghai").

Director Jay Stern's recent theater work includes "Hell is for Real," "The Bardy Bunch," and "20th Century Photograph," created with director Veronica Wigg. Jay is a member of the Lincoln Center Directors Lab and a founder of the World Wide Lab, an international festival of director-driven work developed at the Watermill Center. Through the World Wide Lab, Jay directed the world premiere of "Alien Attack!" created with director Chang Nai Wen at Teatro Due in Rome, and an adaptation of "Agamemnon" with director at the Irondale Center in Brooklyn. He has also directed three feature films, and is the producer of the Iron Mule short comedy film festival.

As a music director and conductor, Logan Medland has toured nationally and internationally with many shows including: Cats, (North and South American tour) Crazy for You (National tour) Chicago (National tour) Jersey Boys (U.S. national tour and Toronto production) and A Christmas Story (Music Supervisor). He is the composer and writer of Fingers and Toes, a 30's era musical that was part of NYMF in 2010, and has had three regional productions since then. He is the musical director and arranger for The Bardy Bunch: the NY Fringe and Off-Broadway hit, that most recently finished a critically-acclaimed run at The Mercury Theatre in Chicago. He currently performs nightly in the orchestra for the Robert De Niro and Jerry Zack's directed A Bronx Tale on Broadway.
