In a statement, Scott Siegel, the creator/producer of the Nightlife Awards said, "As we head in to the final two weeks before the show, we are quickly building toward a critical mass of extraordinary talent on the stage of Town Hall on January 25th. Not only do we have big stars like Christine Ebersole, John Pizzarrelli, Jessica Molaskey and Tovah Feldshuh who have been part of the Nightlife Awards before, we also have great new talent taking part, like Cheyenne Jackson, Nellie McKay, James Barbour, and Howard Fishman. And we've only just begun reaching out to the other winners. We have an excellent track record for getting the vast majority of the winners to come to the Town Hall stage and perform. We trust that this year will be no exception. In any event, we've got an amazing array of special guest star performers — and there will be more of those, as well." Tickets to the Nightlife Awards are $75, $50 and $25. They are available via TicketMaster at (212) 307-4100 or at TicketMaster.com. Tickets are now also available at The Town Hall Box Office at 123 West 43rd Street.
