For a special Pride Weekend performance, Seth Sikes will return to Feinstein’s/54 Below on June 24 9:30pm with his full band in Seth Sikes Sings Judy, Liza, Barbra, Etc., a celebration of the songs of Judy Garland, Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand, Bernadette Peters, and other Broadway legends.
After two years of consistently sold-out appearances in his critically-acclaimed tributes to Garland (which won a Broadway World Award), Minnelli, and Peters, Sikes will perform highlights from those concerts, as well as adding several new songs along the way.
The New York Times said of Sikes’s debut, “The performance — less an impression of Ms. Garland than an interpretation of her vibrato-heavy method of belting – was a hit.”
The critics were just as kind for his follow-up show, Seth Sikes Sings Liza Minnelli, and The New York Post said, “It was a heartfelt concert. Sikes has a heap of fans and his audiences are always tightly packed and brimming with enthusiasm for his booming, jazzy renditions of their favorite songs.”
Previously best known in the theatre as an Assistant Director (on shows like The Band’s Visit, The Nance, and Pageant), Sikes will perform with a full band with musical arrangements by Matt Aument and Neil Douglas Reilly. The evening will be directed by Eric Gilliland.
Cover charge starts at $30 and there is a $25 food and beverage minimum. Tickets and information are available at: https://54below.com/events/seth-sikes-sings-judy-garland-etc-pride-week/
