LIVESTREAM | Joseph Thor and Friends Craft A Musical, Volume 3

STREAMS LIVE MARCH 29, 2026 AT 9:45PM ET

This event is being streamed online. To purchase tickets for the in-person event, click here.

Join Joseph Thor and Friends as they once again craft a brand new musical at 54 Below! The secret formula to a great musical is actually not a secret at all. There are archetypal numbers that make up all of the best shows. You might even know some by name, like “The Eleven O’Clock Number” (“Rose’s Turn,” anyone?) or the “I Want Song,” (“The Wizard and I,” is a fav) but there are even more like the “Charm Song” (“Modern Major General,” perhaps) or even the “Soliloquy” (and not just the song from Carousel) you may not have heard of. Using this formula we have compiled the best songs across the musical theater catalog in each category to create a new super-musical!

Come experience the greatest musical ever made with some of NYC’s newest talent.
