Len Cariou, Lee Roy Reams, and More Join 50 Key Stage Musicals Concert at 54 Below

Routledge Press' highly praised new book FIFTY KEY STAGE MUSICALS by Robert W. Schneider and Shannon Agnew, which rounds-up fifty musicals whose creations were seminal in altering the landscape of musical theater, is now being given a one night only concert with the artists who helped create these monumental musicals at 54 Below, Broadway's Supper Club.

Join us on February 8th, for an evening of songs and stories, performed by the legends themselves who had a front row to history.

Scheduled to appear in the concert are George Lee Andrews, LaDonna Burns, Jim Brochu, Len Cariou, Kevin Chamberlain, Beth Fowler, Alexandra Amadeo Frost, Janine LaManna, and Lee Roy Reams.

Further casting will be announced at a later date.

Fifty Key Stage Musicals will be directed and produced by Robert W. Schneider. The concert will be music directed by Michael Lavine.

Schneider said, "Putting this concert together will be just one of many incredible resources for future students of musical theatre that will be available to them through the Fifty Key Musicals series. We are so honored that so many legends will be back to tell us their memories of creating these landmark shows."
