54 Below Premieres: Norm Lewis

Who says nice guys finish last? Broadway leading man Norm Lewis exudes amiability, but that hasn't stopped him from a long career that has included stints in Porgy and Bess, Les Misérables, Side Show and Chicago; in 2014, he became the first African-American to play the Phantom on Broadway. In his annual Christmas set at Feinstein's/54 Below, he welcomes audiences to enjoy holiday favorites, warmed by the hearth of his voice. In this virtual edition, recorded in high-definition on the F/54 stage, he is joined by a three-piece band led by musical director Joseph Joubert. Richard Jay-Alexander directs the concert, which features guest appearances by Pastor Bobby Lewis and Broadway leading lady Sierra Boggess. Tickets cost $25.
