The Elaine Stritch Memorial Tribute "Everybody, Rise! A Celebration of Elaine Stritch" was held earlier this week at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, featuring Feinstein and more, all on hand to share songs and stories of the theatre legend's life.

With a Tony and Emmy Award-winning career that stretched from her stage debut in 1944 -- through career triumphs in Sail Away, Company, and Elaine Stritch: At Liberty -- to her final role on the boards in A Little Night Music in 2010, Elaine Stritch's whiskey-soaked voice, wry comic timing, and reputation as a sharp-tongued, unapologetically audacious personality cemented her as a bona fide legend of stage and screen. Ms. Stritch passed away on July 17th, 2014 at the age of 89.
