Emmy, Tony, and two-time Golden Globe nominated star of stage and screen Matthew Morrison returns to Feinstein's/54 Below for three very special performances. In these new concerts, Morrison performs classic renditions of standards and numbers from his past productions - including HAIRSPRAY,  SOUTH PACIFIC, FINDING NEVERLAND, GLEE, and more.

I've met Matthew several times over the last decade and a half. The first time was in 2002, right after Hairspray opened. The second instance was at 54 Below, when he was seeing his on-screen arch nemesis, Jane Lynch, perform. Most recently, I got the chance to briefly chat with him backstage after a performance of Finding Neverland.  When I left the theater, I remember saying he was the most gracious star on Broadway.  Friday, was no different.
