Birdland Hosts ZANI'S FURRY FREINDS Benefit Concert 5/9 With Nixon, Rice & More

Broadway Concerts Direct & Birdland Proudly Present a benefit concert for ZANI'S FURRY FRIENDS- a wonderful animal rescue organization.

This cabaret extravaganza by some of Broadway and Cabaret's finest performers will be a party mix of enchanting music, guaranteed to touch the heart and delight the spirit to help this wonderful animal rescue organization,Zani's Furry Friends, a tax deductible organization, 501c3.

This incredible group rescues dogs, cats and bunnies right out of the euthanasia rooms of the city's animal shelters, gives them medical care, kindness and loving attention and gets them adopted into loving homes through their own tremendous effort and many times paid for out of their own personal pocketbooks. Birdland feels it is an honor to be of some help. 100% of the money from the evening's proceedings (cover charge, auction, raffle, journal) will go to Zani's Furry Friends.

Please help us pack the room. Buy your tickets early. Tell your friends.
