Manhattan’s Mastercard Midnight Theatre will launch a weekly event called “Club Midnight,” starting on September 6th, where the club features the city’s top DJs, dancers, and acts each Friday.
Mastercard Midnight Theatre has quickly become one of Manhattan’s top spots for nightlife. Located at the heart of Midtown Manhattan, the venue is steps away from Hudson Yards and Penn Station. In this space, Midnight Theatre offers an intimate 150-seat theater that has hosted talent from across the world. Among the theater’s regulars are Grammy-winning trumpeter Brian Newman and the Tangier Blues Band.
The Mastercard Midnight Theatre also boasts the restaurant Midnight by Navarro’s. The Parisian-style restaurant offers world-class wine and small bites, while presenting a space for musical performances. This space is already currently home to Brian Newman After Dark each Friday.
As part of this residency, Newman runs a program of genre-bending music and performances. Inspired by artists like Miles Davis, Elliott Smith, and Nirvana, Brian Newman weaves a diverse musical tapestry in each of his performances. His trumpet chops and old-school Las Vegas cool have led Newman to work with everyone from Lady Gaga to Wynton Marsalis. Backed by a ten-piece orchestra, Newman presents shows with stars of the screen and stage each Friday.
While Brian Newman After Dark’s curtain closes at 11pm, the theater’s festivities continue into the night. Starting on September 6th, Club Midnight will open its doors at 11pm. Hosted in the lobby of Midnight by Navarro’s, the show is a who’s who of NYC nightlife. The late-night party will feature local DJs, dancers and more. This weekly event is free to attend, with cocktails and small bites available for purchase.
The inaugural club midnight will feature six acts throughout the night. Providing music for the party is DJ Sticky Dojah. Originally raised in Germany, DJ Sticky Dojah made a name for himself in Brooklyn. Over the past decade, he has toured Europe and Africa with his eclectic and funky musical stylings. In addition to music, the night will feature a number of burlesque dancers, aerialists, and other performers. Among the other highlighted acts are Perse Fanny, Andrea Flow, Mademoiselle Estelle, Synn Sultress, and Dorienne Dreadful.
Following this inaugural night, Club Midnight will continue each Friday with a rotating cast of performers. The acts and venues provide an experience that is both refined and edgy, something which might just prove to be the next big thing in NYC nightlife.
