As the temperatures rise fairly quickly in our city, a musical of snowy and theatrical bliss inhabits the Hobby Center.

After years of filling the basement at 54 Below with fans, friends and fun times, composer Drew Gasparini has decided to call it a day, at least for the time being, and July 25th there is a party to send him off to Broadway with The Karate Kid.
