Krystina Alabado, Christopher Rice, and More to Lead Concert Reading of New Musical CITY OF LIGHT

A concert reading of City of Light, a new musical written by Jan Roper, Gabrielle Wagner, and Julie Weiner, is coming to Feinstein's/54 Below. Directed by Autumn Reeser ("The Arrangement," "Entourage," "The O.C."), City of Light was selected by Stephen Schwartz for the ASCAP Musical Theater Workshop, and was presented as part of the SheNYC Theater Festival. Set in Paris, City of Light is a modern, romantic musical comedy - with an unexpected twist -- that will make you want to book the next flight to France!

The evening features a cast including Krystina Alabado (American Psycho, American Idiot, The Mad Ones, This Ain't No Disco, Spring Awakening), Jane Blass (Annie, Hairspray, 9-5), Jack Cotterell (Little Women, The Magic Flute, The Last Five Years), Anthony Norman (The Prom, Newsies), Christopher Rice (The Book of Mormon, The Most Happy Fella, West Side Story), Keri Safran (Typhoid Mary, Broadway Under the Stars, Singin' in the Rain), and an ensemble comprised of Rakel Arroyo, Zach Schanne, and Katy Wilson.

The concert is directed by Autumn Reeser ("The Arrangement," "Entourage," "The O.C."), and features musical direction by Jan Roper.

Feinstein's/54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club & Private Event Destination, is a performance venue in the grand tradition of New York City nightlife. A few blocks from the heart of Times Square and just below the legendary Studio 54, Feinstein's/54 Below is a classically designed state-of-the art nightclub in the theatre district that hosts audiences with warmth and style. Feinstein's/54 Below presents iconic and rising stars from the worlds of Broadway and popular music and has set a new standard for culinary excellence worthy of the world-class entertainment on the stage.

In their description of the venue, The New York Times writes, "Feinstein's/54 Below has the intimacy of a large living room with unimpeded views and impeccable sound; there is not a bad seat in the house. Its sultry after-hours ambience is enhanced by brocade-patterned wall panels planted with orange-shaded lanterns. And the atmosphere is warmer and sexier than in Manhattan's other major supper clubs."

Located at 254 West 54th Street, Feinstein's/54 Below features up to three shows nightly with cover charges ranging from $5-$105. 54Below.com/Feinsteins
