54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, will again present I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been on November 13, 2022, at 9:30pm. Everyone has dreams that we fear will pass us by. For actors those come in the shape and form of roles-whether they're grown up and become too old for that child star turn, to the soprano never being considered for the baritone lead, everyone has a song in their heart that they'll likely never get to see come to fruition with a crowd and in lights.

Until this November at 54 Below...

From the crazy amazing mind of Alexandra Silber (Fiddler on the Roof, Indecent, Master Class) comes, I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been. This special concert series returns to again give performers a chance to embody their "roles come true". The audience will get to bear witness to actors living out those dreams! The seventh edition will as usual boast some of Broadway's favorite performers for a night of surprise, and promises to show them in ways one would never imagine.
