FEINSTEIN'S/54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, just presented BENJAMIN EAKELEY in his solo cabaret debut, 'BROADWAY SWINGER.' Benjamin Eakeley and his four-piece jazz band reinterpret classic songs from the 1960s in a lounge act that chronicles the American stage's evolution from conservative to carefree. 'BROADWAY SWINGER' is a groovy romp through the decade that gave us Oliver!, Cabaret, Hair and Promises, Promises.
