Photo Flash: Jim Caruso's Cast Party with Liza Minnelli, Daisy Egan & More

For the past ten years, Jim Caruso''s Cast Party has been the ultimate place for Broadway, jazz and cabaret folks to entertain each other and the people who love them. This past week was no exception, as show business royalty poured through the doors of Birdland. Liza Minnelli, Art Garfunkle, Michael Feinstein, Daisy Egan, celebrated bassist Freebo, and Jane Monheit were all seen singing and/or cheering dozens of impromptu performances. Klea Blackhurst was hostess-with-the-mostess (as Caruso was helming the "Fiddler at 50" event at another venue) and as always, the Cast Party Symphony Orchestra (Billy Stritch, Steve Doyle and Rick Montalbano) accompanied everyone with style and musical panache.

Jim Caruso''s Cast Party takes place every Monday night at 9:30pm at Birdland (315 West 44 Street) in NYC. Please visit www.BirdlandJazz.com or www.CastPartyNYC.com for more details.
