The Abingdon Theatre Company announces the presentation of Broadway on the Bowery, a curated series of downtown cabaret dinner theater, directed by Artistic Director Chad Austin, to be held monthly at Duane Park (308 Bowery – between Bleecker & Houston Streets). The inaugural event will be held on Tuesday, March 26th at 7:00 pm. Two of New York City’s most crowded thoroughfares—Broadway and Bowery—lie a very short distance apart but epitomize the divide between “uptown glamour” and “downtown edge.” The two will merge once a month for an evening of interpretations of musical theatre classics by some out-of-the-box performers. Patrons can “expect to find fire dancers and aerial performers suspended above their tables,” plus “real burlesque performers.”
The Abingdon Theatre Company, established in 1993 by a group of fie theater artists, is dedicated to developing and producing new American work by emerging and established artists, with an emphasis on stories about the human experience that reflect our social, political, historical and cultural diversity. The Abingdon has collaborated with more than 200 playwrights, produced 85 New York and World Premiere plays, presented more than 700 readings, staged 175 ten-minute plays and commissioned 6 one-act plays.
Tickets, which include the show and a three-course meal, are priced at $250 (tax deductible donation of $175) and $200 (tax deductible donation of $125) and may be purchased online at www.ovationtix.com.
