Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley announced today that their live and in person Stars in the House at The Town Hall will be rescheduled to Monday, October 25th at 8:00 PM, consistent with Theatre Authority guidelines.

Susie Mosher's ongoing tenacity continues to be reflected in her guest cast.

Legendary composer/arranger Tom Kitt (Next to Normal, Jagged Little Pill) has teamed up with TodayTix at Tavern to celebrate the release of his debut studio album, Reflect. The 2-time Tony Award winner will sit down at the piano while special guests perform songs from the album, along with iconic numbers from some of Tom’s most well-known musicals.

Tony-nominated actress Ariana DeBose inaugurated the Spring Hill Arts Gathering (SHAG Festival) on Friday, July 30th with a cabaret performance of career favorites and beloved hits, presented by TodayTix.

Jason Gotay, who currently stars as teacher Rafa Caparros on Gossip Girl, will take the stage on August 2nd. Gotay  previously appeared in Love Life with Anna Kendrick and played one of the Lost Boys on NBC’s Peter Pan Live! His  Broadway credits include Bring It On The Musical and Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark.  

There are some people who just bring joy wherever they go. People who, just by the force of their personality, make things feel safe and kind and fun. Jelani Remy (Ain't Too Proud, The Lion King, Smokey Joe's Cafe) is just that sort of person, as he proved tonight in his solo show THIS IS MY MOMENT at Feinstein's 54 Below. Although his show started as something rather autobiographical, about halfway through he discarded the device and just sang songs that were joyful and that showcased his marvelous, rangy voice.

Next week, FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club & Private Event Destination, will present some of the brightest stars from Broadway, cabaret, jazz, and beyond.

Derek Klena (Jagged Little Pill, Anastasia, Wicked) and Alex Newell (Once on This Island, Glee, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist) are the latest Broadway stars to join the outdoor summer concert series TodayTix at Tavern, while Ariana DeBose (Hamilton, Steven Spielberg's West Side Story) returns for an encore show.

Nominees include Leslie Odom Jr., Renée Elise Goldsberry, Bryan Cranston, Colton Domingo, and more.

The stars are coming OUT of the house, and they’re inviting fans along!  On Sunday, September 12, Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley will host a very special LIVE “Stars In The House” at The Town Hall in New York City.  

The acclaimed Broadway Sings concert series is making its long-awaited in-person return celebrating Lady Gaga's epic 2020 album Chromatica. 

Two very special episodes of “Stars In The House” have been announced to celebrate and honor Pride Month and the LGBTQ community.  Tonight, the cast of the groundbreaking series “Queer As Folk” will reunite to talk about the iconic show and what it meant to be a part of the first American drama series with gay characters as leads. 

Kandel will take the festival stage performing on Saturday, August 7 at Spring Hill Arts Gathering in Washington, CT where he’ll be sharing the bill with artists such as KT Tunstall, Ariana Debose, Alex Newell and Sophie B Hawkins.
