Join us at 54 Below for an evening of soul-searching and seat-belting in Mikayla Petrilla and Friends: Riffs and Ruminations—a night of musical theatre highs, hilarious lows, and the thoughts that hit somewhere between your fifth audition of the week and your third shaken espresso of the day.

Mikayla Petrilla (“Saturday Night Live”, Sleep No More, Lincoln Center, The Second City) is a New York-based musical theatre performer and influencer whose work lives at the intersection of classic leading lady and downtown comedy kid. With a voice that soars and timing that snaps, Mikayla brings nuance, sparkle, and sly humor to every role she plays. She’s a storyteller at heart—whether through an 11 o’clock number or a perfectly placed aside. Also known as @mikaylapetrilla on social media, Mikayla has grown an audience of over 100k by sharing her journey as an artist and advocacy work uplifting nonprofit organizations, educational opportunities, and hot takes on theatre.

Featuring a dazzling lineup of Broadway alums, viral voices, and rising stars, Riffs and Ruminations is part cabaret, part confessional. Expect musical theatre staples reimagined, unexpected pop turns, original material, and stories that hit just a little too close to home.

It’s big dreams, bold choices, and belting through the burnout. It’s therapy—but with a sliding scale rate and a martini to boot.

Please note that all artists and acts are subject to change at any time.
