Photo Coverage: Charles Busch Makes 92Y 'Lyrics & Lyricists' Debut with HERE'S TO THE GIRLS!
The Warner Bros. Dames! The Universal Sweethearts! The Fox Blondes! Paramount's Sophisticated Ladies! And the MGM Goddesses! They faced down studio heads, gossip columnists and shorter leading men, and they always came back a star!
Artistic director Charles Busch -- in his Lyrics & Lyricists debut -- served up a cavalcade of stories and songs about the legendary women of Hollywood's movie musical Golden Age in "Here's to the Girls!" last night, February 7, at 92Y. BroadwayWorld has there and brings you photos from the show below!
Nancy Anderson, Andréa Burns, Cady Huffman, Erin Maguire, and Zakiya Young sang classic songs of the silver screen made famous by such stars as Ginger Rogers, Jeannette McDonald, Alice Faye, Betty Hutton, and Judy Garland, among others, while Busch himself channeled his own inner Marlene Dietrich.
Stage director Carl Andress, Busch's longtime collaborator, and music director John McDaniel, two-time Emmy Award winner as bandleader for "The Rosie O'Donnell" Show," round out the creative team.
