Marie\'s Crisis Inc.

Is your idea of a rocking record more Mary Martin than Ricky Martin, more Cole Porter than Portishead? This is the place for you. Marie's Crisis is New York's pre-eminent piano bar, a friendly, often raucous room where musical theater fans go to get tanked and belt out Ethel Merman tunes. Even if you don't like to sing, even if -- heaven forbid -- you don't like show tunes, you will still relish your time here. It's your one chance to watch middle-aged men in leather blazers, aging divas in sequined sweaters, and overgrown ingenues who probably played Annie in summer stock circa 1981 gather 'round the piano, toss back bourbon, sway gently and croon "Anything Goes" in three-part harmony.
