Sunday, June 3rd – 6 pm to 9 pm

 After the sellout crowd at Sotto Sopra Restaurant’s first Broadway Night we have been hearing “encore, encore.”  In the words from the Broadway play Oliver, “Please sir, I want some more?” has been resonating.  Sotto Sopra listened and pulled together an amazing cast of performers for this unique June 3rd, Sunday evening of memorable Broadway tunes from Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun to Stephen Sondheim’s Into the Woods – as well as additional hit Broadway shows.
