SUMMARY:1920s Party @  Russian Samovar
DESCRIPTION:fanfare, and live music.  In the spirit of prohibition, apart from the infamous Samovar Virtuosos, we added more remarkably talented performers and entertainers to the party with more live music, singers, dancers, performers, and more.
About the VENUE
The party will take place @ the legendary Manhattan venue located at W. 52nd Street. This place was a real speakeasy, a top-notch jazz club, Frank Sinatra’s favorite hangout, and a social club & piano lounge.
There is a reason why New York Times called this place a “Social Club”. Liza Minnelli casually played the white grand piano, Marcello Mastroianni would stop-by for a drink, Nicole Kidman pretended that she was a writer… 
It’s discrete upstairs lounge with a separate entrance and a private dining room has hosted countless private parties for celebrities ranging from athletes to designers and from rappers to opera singers.
