I'm one of the individuals working on this upcoming concert at 54 Below. Thought that some people on this board might appreciate it :) Hope you can join us!

Join emerging artists for an almost-midnight showing of collections from your favorite cult classics. Songs will revolve around the themes of propaganda, activism, and identity, and proceeds will be donated to the ACLU."

Good to see a fellow self-promoter on the cabaret scene! Best of luck with this.

It was the stuff of true Broadway magic, Polka Dot- we were told upstairs that the show was being delayed 10 minutes. When Tony Sheldon revealed that it was due to a sudden influx of ticket sales, we thought he was joking! We wound up playing to a full house!
There should be photos up on BWW in a few days. It was a marvelous experience.
