54 BELOW will welcome back Broadway and cabaret star Melissa Errico in her new show Sondheim In the City from November 2 – 4 at 7:00pm. Tickets are on sale now at 54below.org/MelissaErrico. 

After the critical triumph of her Sondheim Sublime album, Melissa Errico (My Fair Lady, High Society, Dracula, White Christmas) will return to her home at 54 Below and to her favorite songwriter with an entirely new program of Sondheim songs, celebrating a new album and a different side of Steve. 

Sondheim In the City is the Sondheim of smart, sophisticated New York, the Sondheim of the quick, witty, sardonic, love-seeking and sex-driven city that he recorded and worked in through his long life. From the anthem of city busyness “Another Hundred People” to the bittersweet hymns of city marriage, “Sorry, Grateful” and “Good Thing Going”, with time for hard-boiled surprises like “Uptown, Downtown” and surprisingly soft-centered ballads like “What More Do I Need?” and “Dawn,” Melissa will sound out New York as she rounds out her portrait of Stephen—and, as always in an Errico show, there will be smart talk from this celebrated New York Times columnist to go along with her sublime singing.  Come hear why BroadwayWorld says that Melissa Errico is “a poet, a painter, a walking work of art that lives and breathes to tell stories, and we all the lucky benefactors of her passion.” 

Musical direction by Tedd Firth
