Taking its title from lyrics to the Joni Mitchell song "Cactus Tree," Seibert "will share the music that inspires her, tickles her, and speaks to this moment of finding herself in New York."
The 9:30 PM concert includes special guest Jahn Sood as well as musical director and pianist Chris Fenwick and musicians Alan Stevens Hewitt, Jeremy Yaddaw and Ben Golder-Novick.
Seibert earned a Drama Desk Award nomination for her performance in Tamar of the River Off-Broadway. As previously reported, Rocky will end its run Aug. 17.
There is a $25-$50 cover charge and $25 food and beverage minimum. 54 Below is located at 254 W. 54th Street. For more information visit 54Below.com.

"It's the Eye of the Tiger" and yet too early to open my own eyes...

Always start every morning with a cup of tea and some quiet time. Maybe a little prayer for the prayer box if I'm in the mood. Dear God, it's me Margo...

And then there's nothing like a little THERAPY to get your day going! (Note the Please Lean On Me pillow.)
One more dose of caffeine and then it's time to head to work!

Sometimes on the subway I watch grown women eat baby food out of squeezies. I call it character research.
Margo Seibert
Subway take over! At 50th street I stop to admire our new posters and marvel at the fact that no one has inappropriately defaced... my face. I cannot WAIT for this to happen. Bring. It.

Just a few of our amazing crew here at the Winter Garden! These guys are amazing..have you SEEN OUR SETS?

Into the darkness and we find LIGHT! Cheers to our knockout Stage Management Team!

Quick shower, some yoga, and I'm off to the races! Half hour!

This also happens during half hour..a serenade from Andy Karl himself! Warming up the chords with a bloody chest! He sings...

Sara (my amazing dresser) to the rescue! Once we're at places, I get in my Adrian suit (which includes long underwear and a crotch strap) and wait for my 1st entrance!
Margo Seibert
And right before I make that entrance I get to see the stunning Kristen Piro...

Can't forget Jenny Mudge! And off we go to make theatre magic!

Intermission. As Adrian's confidence blossoms, so does her hair. This is Rick, making me look gorgeous for Act 2 pajama time!

And if you really get lucky, sometimes you can catch a movie with Andy Karl... of Andy Karl.. when he was 11.. moonwalking to Billie Jean. Please ask him to do this dance for you.

The final fight! Listening to Rocky and Apollo beat the *@$% out of each other while the CROWD GOES WILD!

Post bows: music by osmosis. Getting ready for my first SOLO CONCERT at 54 Below. July 28th 9:30pm, after Patti Lupone. (What!!!)

Dinner break at The Little Beet. Here are some of the amazing staff who now know my order by heart. Way to make a girl feel loved guys! #salmonwins!

Much needed dose of sunshine on the roof with a side of daydreaming.
Margo Seibert
To keep my cool during Show #2 I partake in a little inspirational reading during the final fight. A MUST READ for actors. "If you seek fulfillment, success will come!"

By the end I find myself looking like this. Naked and eating a turkey burger. I love Broadway.
Margo Seibert
Ok that was just to make sure you were paying attention. I put my robe on, and then eat a turkey burger. Let's do this again tomorrow! Goodnight, Rocky!
