Those very chic uptown characters of the new Broadway production of Company will make a Feb. 23 appearance in their natural habitat: a Barnes & Noble on the Upper West Side.

The Lincoln Center location of the book store will host a performance by the cast (and a CD signing) to celebrate 100 performances on Broadway and the release of the new cast recording from PS Classics and Nonesuch. The appearance takes place 5:30-6:45 PM Feb. 23.

A live performance of three selections from the musical (with the actors accompanying themselves on instruments) will be followed by a CD signing of the new Broadway cast recording (which was released Feb. 20).

Barnes & Noble Lincoln Center is located at 1972 Broadway at 66th Street.
