# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Golden Boy In Concert
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 09:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us at 54 Below as we celebrate over 60 years of the classic musical Golden Boy in concert. Based on the 1937 play of the same name by Clifford Odets, the story focuses on Joe Wellington, a young man from Harlem who, despite his family’s objections, turns to prizefighting as a means of escaping his ghetto roots and finding fame and fortune. He crosses paths with Mephistopheles-like promoter Eddie Satin and eventually betrays his manager Tom Moody when he becomes romantically involved with Moody’s girlfriend Lorna Moon.

Produced and directed by John Bronston with music direction by Nehemiah Luckett (The Scottsboro Boys, A Bed and a Chair Encores, Spunk at Yale Rep), we’ll be celebrating the rich legacy of the musical and featuring the complete score written for the initial production on Broadway in 1964 by Charles Strouse and Lee Adams. For the first time ever, this performance will also include material written for the 1968 London premiere that starred Sammy Davis Jr – as well as additional material written for later revivals of the show starring Obba Babatunde between 1984 and 1991 and for a production at Long Wharf in 2000 starring Rodney Hicks, Michael Rupert, Doug Eskew, and Milton Craig Nealy (with a new book and additional lyrics by Keith Glover).
