Jennifer Simard News

Additional cast has been announced for the Broadway premiere of Once Upon A One More Time, the new musical comedy that flips the script on famous fairytales, powered by the music of Grammy Award-winning international pop icon Britney Spears. 

Next month, 54 BELOW will present some of the brightest stars from Broadway, cabaret, jazz, and beyond.

Little Known Facts is a weekly podcast hosted by stage and film actress Ilana Levine. This week's episode features Tony nominated actor Jennifer Simard! Simard talked about her career and more in this episode. Listen to the full episode here!

54 BELOW has announced that Jennifer Simard is returning with encore performances of her sold-out show, Can I Get Your Number? on March 31 and April 1 at 7pm.

Simard's concept for the show, which she performed twice at 54 Below, was that she has mostly played second banana to many of her musical theater idols on stage, so Simard would honor that star with a song they are known for. It's a fun idea, brilliantly executed by Simard and her musical director and accompanist Steve Marzullo.

Next week, 54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club & Private Event Destination, presents some of the brightest stars from Broadway, cabaret, jazz, and beyond. A recipient of the 2022 Tony Awards Honor for Excellence in the Theatre, 54 Below celebrates Broadway musicals and writers of the past and present, promoting an ongoing engagement with their work.
