Say goodbye to 2025 and ring in the New Year at 54 Below with Tony Award nominee Joy Woods!

Join her for an electric evening of song, laughter, bubbles, and pure Joy. Midnight never looked so good!

Joy Woods is a Chicago-born, New York–based performer who has quickly established herself as one of Broadway’s rising stars. She received a 2025 Tony Award® nomination for her performance as Louise in the Broadway revival of Gypsy opposite Audra McDonald, and most recently starred in London’s 30th Anniversary Concert of Jason Robert Brown’s Songs For A New World.

Joy made her professional debut at 19 as Chiffon in the 2019 Off-Broadway production of Little Shop of Horrors, and later returned to the show in the leading role of Audrey. In 2022, she made her Broadway debut in SIX as Catherine Parr. She gained widespread attention for her breakout performance as Middle Allie in the 2024 Broadway adaptation of The Notebook. Her powerful rendition of the song “My Days” became a viral sensation, amassing millions of views on TikTok and 10 million streams on Spotify.
