Is it Hispanic Heritage Month already? But I just took down my Cinco de Mayo decorations. Dios, mio — I’ve been caught culturally unprepared! Luckily 54 BELOW, NYC’s toniest supper nightclub, has prepared a month-long fiesta filled with Broadway’s best Latinx talent and a specially designed dinner menu with dishes from México, Peru, El Salvador, Puerto Rico and more. The entertainment and food will satisfy even the most discriminating Hispanic pallet. Here’s what’s coming!
Inspired by the work of Federico Garcia Lorca, poet/songwriter Leonard Cohen became globally recognized for his hits Hallelujah, Bird on a Wire, I’m Your Man, Suzanne, and So Long, Marianne. His work will be honored by the captivating duo of Patrick Page (Hadestown) and Grammy-nominated powerhouse Perla Batalla as they ignite the stage with an electrifying celebration of Leonard Cohen’s enduring legacy. In a stirring evening of music, poetry, and personal anecdotes, they honor the profound impact of Cohen’s genius on their lives and careers. Once a cherished member of Cohen’s inner circle, Perla Batalla enchants audiences with her velvety vocals and intimate reflections. Born the daughter of a Mexican mariachi, Perla has seven albums to her name, all infused with social relevance, soul, and sabor. While Broadway veteran Patrick Page – whose rich basso profundo voice is similar to that of Leonard Cohen — will add his magic to this evening of rock, ballads, and reflection.
