Tony® and Grammy Award winner Jennifer Holliday makes her highly anticipated return to Feinstein's/54 Below with a dazzling show featuring Broadway love songs to celebrate Valentine's Day week.
She will sing her own thrilling renditions of popular tunes and jazz standards from Broadway musicals along with her signature torch song of unrequited love from "Dreamgirls".
She'll also pay tribute to some of her favorite composers, including George Gershwin, Harold Arlen, Rodgers & Hart, Cole Porter, and Duke Ellington, accompanied by a sextet of NY's most accomplished musicians.
Holliday catapulted to fame with the starring role in the smash hit "Dreamgirls". She won a Grammy Award® for the show-stopping "And I Am Telling You, I'm Not Going" and a Tony Award® for Best Actress in a Musical for the role. She won a 2nd Grammy for her take on Duke Ellington's classic "Come Sunday." In 2016, she returned to Broadway in a revival of "The Color Purple" as sultry singer Shug Avery.
Her credits also include "Sing Mahalia Sing: The Mahalia Jackson Story, Downhearted Blues: The Bessie Smith Story, Harlem Suite, Chicago, Grease", & "Black Nativity".
Guests will be greeted with a welcome drink and hors d'oeuvres prior to a three-course dinner and an up-close and personal performance.
Following the show, guests are invited to linger and savor their evening in the warm and stylish environs of Feinstein's/54 Below. To ensure an intimate, comfortable, and never-to-be-forgotten experience, seating is limited.
