Cabaret star Mary Cleere Haran will bring the music of a great, if underappreciated, composer to Feinstein's at the Regency (540 Park Avenue at 61st Street) for two weeks. She will perform Lullaby of Broadway: The Harry Warren Songbook at the posh venue from October 25th through November 5th.

With musical director Don Rebic as accompaniast and Sean Smith on bass, the cabaret will feature the following song-list: "About a Quarter to Nine" (lyrics by Al Dubin), "An Affair to Remember" (lyrics by Leo McCarey and Harold Adamson), "Artists and Models" (lyrics by Jack Brooks), "The Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (lyrics by Dubin), "42nd Street" (lyrics by Dubin)m "The Girlfriend of the Whirling Dervish" (lyrics by Dubin and Johnny Mercer), "I Had The Craziest Dream" (lyrics by Mack Gordon), "I'll String Along With You" (lyrics by Dubin), "It's a Great Big World" (lyrics by Mercer), "Jeepers Creepers" (lyrics by Mercer), "Lullaby of Broadway" (lyrics by Dubin), "No Love, No Nothin'" (lyrics by Leo Robin), "On the Atchison, Topeka, and the Santa Fe" (lyrics by Mercer),"Remember My Forgotten Man" (lyrics by Dubin), "Sweet and Slow" (lyrics by Dubin), and "With Plenty of Money and You" (lyrics by Dubin).

Warren, whose parade of hit has pervaded the American Songbook, is best known for 42nd Street, the snappy 1930s movie musical that inspired the Broadway tap extravaganza. The musical interpolated songs from other Warren movie musicals as well. Choreographed by Busby Berkeley, they included Gold Diggers of 1933, Gold Diggers of 1935, Footlight Parade and Dames. For Twentieth Century Fox, Warren penned songs for Tin Pan Alley, That Night in Rio, The Gang's All Here and others
