SONDHEIMAS is the annual quasi-religious celebration of the birth of the savior of musical theater, Stephen Sondheim. The team that brought you last year's sold-out show at 54 Below is back on March 21 (11:30PM), with another raucous celebration of the man, the music, and the mythos. Expect songs familiar and obscure, irreverent schtick, and a warm holiday feeling that can only come from a gathering of the faithful celebrating together.

On Monday, December 29, the Broadway at Birdland concert stage was the place singer/actor Erich Bergen chose to celebrate his 29th birthday with not one, but two sold-out concerts. Best known for his performance as Bob Gaudio in the Clint Eastwood film "Jersey Boys," and the current hit CBS drama "Madam Secretary," Erich brought his dry wit, smooth vocals, ten piece band, three background singers and two-toned shoes to the Birdland stage, featuring songs from his stage and screen career, and material from his two EP releases.

BROADWAY SESSIONS is described as an evening of musical performances, games and open mic featuring a new Broadway guest each week. The show is created and hosted by Ben Cameron (Bway Wicked, Aida and Footloose) and features musical director Joshua Stephen Kartes on piano. This Thursday, May 8th, Broadway Sessions welcomes the graduating Musical theater class from Boston Conservatory along with special guest BoCo alums and guest hosts Nikka Graff Lanzarone and Kendal Hartse.

In Episode 208, award-winning musical theatre writer Joel B. New sat down with Broadway performer Nikka Graff Lanzarone. Ms. Lanzarone has been seen on stages all over the country, most recently as a seven-foot-tall peacock in 'The Jungle Book' at the Goodman and Huntington Theatres, and on Broadway in the shows 'Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown' and 'Chicago.' In NYC, Nikka was also seen as The Whore in the Transport Group's revival of 'Hello Again', with her family at 54 Below, and in her own solo show at Joe's Pub. She is also a renegade occasional stylist. When not doing any of those other things, she co-created and co-hosts a Broadway-themed podcast called The Ensemblist with her partner Mo Brady, which turns Broadway inside out.

In this week's edition, we caught up with Alan Campbell, who is starring as 'Sam Carmichael' in Mamma Mia!- currently playing at the Broadhurst Theatre.
