Since he was a child, award-winning musical theater composer Joriah Kwamé has struggled with his voice. Is it too high? Does it say the right things? Is it too loud? Before writing the now-viral MT stand-alone, "Little Miss Perfect," (which won the inaugural 2019 Write Out Loud Contest) and starting to find success as a writer, Joriah had to find his voice through the many worlds he created to escape his stark reality as a neurodivergent black man in the midwest. In his 54 Below debut, Kwamé will transport the audience into his world through sarcasm-coated anecdotes, chocolate-covered melodies, and lyrics from the soul. The night will bring together Broadway's most exciting names as he makes a [Black Boy Joy]ful Noise.

Now in its 5th year, the Great White Way meets the Great Wooden Way in Atlantic City. Broadway on the Boardwalk is back and it's bigger than ever.
