Photos: HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD! Debuts At Birdland Theater Writer and proudcer Barry Day has created a musical revue titled HOORAY FOR HOLLYWOOD! that played Birdland Theater on June 15th, starring three of everyone's favorite artists from the cabaret and concert circuit: Maestro Billy Stritch, singing siren Carole J. Bufford, and dreamy as night and day Liam Forde.  The threesome, introduced by cabaret maven KT Sullivan, entertained the packed house for over an hour with the music of the Hollywood of yesteryear, and Broadway World Cabaret photorapher Conor Weiss was there with his camera, as always, to give our readers an exclusive look at the elegant and ebulient new revue.  Enjoy Conor's photo essay below and find other great shows to see on the Birdland website HERE.
