Photo Coverage: Star-Studded UPRIGHT Judy Garland Show
By: James Sims Jun. 18, 2007
Upright Cabaret put on a night of Judy Garland songs celebrating LA Pride Weekend with stars and even Garland relatives turning out for the evening at La Boheme restaurant in West Hollywood on June 8.
Singer/songwriter Audra Mae headlined the performance, as she is the great grandniece of Garland and the great-granddaughter of Judy's band leader Bobby Sherwood. Another legend's family member, Roslyn Kind (half-sister of Barbra Streisand) turned up to sing on stage as well. Other performers at the Garland tribute included Legendary Jazz Singer Ann Mack, Chad Kimball and the divine Valarie Pettiford.
June 22nd, join producer/hosts Shane Scheel and Chris Isaacson along with Music Director Trapper Felides for the Season Finale Upright presentation!
This Summer, in true LA Fashion, the beloved Café La Boheme is "having a little work done" and the Upright Boys are taking their show on the road during the brief hiatus (stay tuned for more details).
