OSTC's Piano Bar Series to Continue with CELEBRATING BROADWAY, 5/2

Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), currently celebrating its first full season in its new state-of-the-art theatre in Warwick, is proud to announce the continuation of their Piano Bar Series. "Celebrating Broadway" will be held following select evening performances of the company's current production, the Tony Award-winning tap-dance extravaganza, 42nd Street.

Following select Friday and Saturday evening performances, the theatre's lobby will be transformed into an intimate performance space, at which patrons will be entertained by cast members, OSTC alumni, and staff members, while enjoying beverages and late night appetizers, which will be available for purchase from the theatre's lobby bar.

"Celebrating Broadway" will be hosted by Mike Daniels, who audiences will remember from his portrayal of Snetsky in OSTC's Inaugural Season production of Fools, as well as his appearances in Children's Festival productions of How I Became a Pirate, The Fabulous Fable Factory, and Schoolhouse Rock Live! Musical accompaniment will be provided by local musicians, Esther Zabinski and Brittany Lyn Dyer.

"Celebrating Broadway" will be presented following Friday and Saturday evening performances of 42nd Street on May 2, 3, 9 and 10. Attendance at the performance preceding the cabaret is not required. The lobby doors will open for the cabaret at 10:00 pm. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI.
