NYIGF Night on Broadway Features Memphis

White Plains, NY – Specially-priced tickets for the Tony-award winning Broadway musical MEMPHIS are now available to winter 2011 New York International Gift Fair® (NYIGF®) participants. As part of NYIGF’s popular “Night on Broadway,” tickets for the Tuesday, February 1, performance cost just $90 each through www.nyigf.com/programs.

“NYIGF’s ‘Night on Broadway’ is one of the New York market’s after-hours highlights,” said Dorothy Belshaw, NYIGF director and GLM senior vice president. “We’re delighted to offer New York market participants specially-priced tickets to MEMPHIS, a four-time 2010 Tony-Award winning musical.”

Set in Tennessee’s underground dance clubs of the 1950’s, MEMPHIS bursts off the stage with explosive dancing, irresistible songs and a thrilling tale of fame and forbidden love. Inspired by actual events, MEMPHIS is about a white radio DJ who wants to change the world, and a black club singer who is ready for her big break. Their incredible journey to the ends of the airwaves is filled with laughter, soaring emotion and roof-raising rock ‘n’ roll.

Winner of four 2010 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, MEMPHIS features a Tony-winning book by Joe DiPietro (I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change) and a Tony-winning original score with music by Bon Jovi founding member David Bryan. Directing is Tony nominee Christopher Ashley (Xanadu), and choreography is by Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys). The cast stars Tony nominee Chad Kimball, Tony nominee Montego Glover, Derrick Baskin, J. Bernard Calloway, James Monroe Iglehart, Tony nominee Michael McGrath and Cass Morgan. More details are available online at www.memphisthemusical.com.

MEMPHIS is playing at New York City’s Shubert Theatre at 225 West 44th Street. Tickets, normally priced at $126.50, are available to NY market participants for just $90, with the difference being absorbed by NYIGF. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.nyigf.com/programs.

NYIGF runs Saturday, January 29, through Thursday, February 3, 2011, at New York City’s Jacob K. Javits Convention Center and Passenger Ship Terminal Piers 92 and 94.

NYIGF is the nation’s premier gift, home and lifestyle marketplace, with 2,800 exhibiting companies featuring an extraordinary breadth and depth of design-driven home fashion products and complementary giftware. Some 35,000 attendees from all 50 states and more than 85 countries worldwide are expected. Information and registration is available online at www.nyigf.com.
