Luxury Performance Venue in Manhattan West Comes Out of Previews Announcing Monthly and Weekly Residents

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 14, 2023 / One year since coming on the scene, the new, buzzed about performance venue in the heart of midtown - Midnight Theatre, a Dolphin Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLPN) investment - has announced its grand opening date of September 22, 2023. For its official emergence, the stunning 150-seat theater - located in Brookfield Properties' Manhattan West plaza between 9th and 10th Avenues and West 31st and 33rd street - rolls out a robust line up of resident acts and concepts that will make Midnight Theatre their home through the end of the year and beyond.

The week leading up to opening night kicks off on Monday, September 18 with The Moth StorySLAM, the always sold-out open-mic storytelling competition, which will be featured monthly. On Wednesday, from the creators of the Tony-winning Freestyle Love Supreme, comes the insanely talented Freestyle+ whose monthly interactive showcase celebrates hip-hop with New York's top improv performers. On Thursday, Midnight Theatre will feature the now-monthly, star-studded live trivia game Samantha Bee's Wits End hosted by Adam Kesner with Kenice Mobley (Tonight Show, Comedy Central). Special guests opening week include David Cross and Eugene Mirman. For Friday night's opening party, fans are invited in to celebrate with a performance from Dez Duron, brought in partnership with TodayTix. For this show, the charismatic frontman and finalist on NBC's hit series The Voice, will showcase his signature sound with timeless American songbook classics and genre-bending hits. The modern day crooner takes audiences on a journey that includes chart-toppers from Frank Sinatra, Michael Bublé and The Four Seasons. Tickets are available here.

Coming Soon…

In the coming weeks, Midnight Theatre will once again be teaming up with TodayTix to launch a recurring music series featuring an array of high-profile Broadway talent. The two companies have successfully hosted numerous live shows headlined by top Broadway stars, making Midnight Theatre the perfect home for these zeitgeist cultural events. Also, returning to Midnight Theatre is Andrew Barth Feldman and Alex Boniello who will take their hit fundraising web series "Broadway Jackbox" to the live stage benefitting the Entertainment Community Fund.

Additionally, Midnight Theatre is the new home for KTP's Juke Joint Jubilee.

KTP made his Broadway debut in the Tony Award-winning smash hit musical, Kinky Boots in the role of "Angel." Late nights through the fall will feature the original concept Midnight Follies. Inspired by the tradition of late-night cabarets and revues, this show offers a mix of burlesque, circus, comedy, music, magic, and vaudeville variety.
