Pangea plans to celebrate a special, reduced capacity New Year’s Eve hosted by the epitome of grace and good cheer, New York’s beloved Sidney Myer.  The evening, which was previously announced with an early and late show, will feature one show only, at 10:30pm, with an extended pre-show dinner portion starting at 8:30pm. This modification will allow for distance-safe dinner seating in both the Front Dining Room and Cabaret Room, and comfortable spaced seating in the Cabaret Room for the 10:30pm show. The special New Year’s Eve edition of “Sidney’s Back at Pangea,” which sold out its four-week run in November, features Tracy Stark on piano.  The singer-comedienne Gretchen Reinhagen will serve as the evening’s emcee.  Tickets are just $50, and food and drink are à-la-carte with a $75 minimum. www.pangeanyc.com
