New Writers at 54! Mark Sonnenblick ft. Lilli Cooper, Alexandra Socha, Alysha Umphress, and more!
January 22, 2020
Emmy, Drama Desk, and Lucille Lortel nominated songwriter Mark Sonnenblick makes his Feinstein’s/54 Below debut with a rare NYC concert–his first in five years. The Jonathan Larson Award-winning author of Midnight at The Never Get (“A knockout from start-to-finish” – BroadwayWorld, “Show of the Year” MAC Award) and the very bio you’re reading right now, Mark called in a lot of favors to get some incredible performers for an evening of genre-spanning musical theater. There will be laughter, there will be tears, there will be microphones and instruments–everything you’d expect at a concert you’ve told your date “looks interesting.”
