HERE I AM in Concert Comes to 54 Below Next Month

54 BELOW, Broadway's Supper Club, presents Samantha Roberts and the company of Something Better Productions in Here I Am in Concert! on Friday, September 2nd. A new musical created by Christian Cantrell and Samantha Roberts. Featuring music and lyrics by Christian Cantrell and Samantha Roberts and a book by Christian Cantrell, Here I Am follows a group of young adults as they navigate relationships in an era of social media dependency. We explore how people treat each other in the modern age, the toxic and unhealthy relationships that are produced and the pressures put on Scarlett, both intentional and not.

Samantha Roberts will be performing and directing an ensemble of artists, including Alexia Correa (an original Forget I Said Anything Cast Member), Jack Baugh, Lauren Lyons, Thomas McFerran, Francesca Panzara, Jett Gomez, and Nikolai Granados. Music Director and Conductor, Christian Cantrell is joined by Zachary Larson on the guitar, Andy Hainz on the bass, Karoline Thomas on the violin and Matthew DeMaria on the drums. Stage Management and technical direction by Emily Hardy.
