Wednesday's offering from the Mabel Mercer Foundation for night two of The 34th Annual Cabaret Convention was a Rex Reed-hosted program titled SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY: A TRIBUTE TO Doris Day.  With Mr. Tedd Firth at the piano, Jay Leonhart on Bass, Ray Marchica behind the Drums, and Mr. Reed at the Host's Mic, the production presented a gifted cast that was as light and fair as the color of Doris Day's hair.  

Broadway World Cabaret photographer Conor Weiss was at the glittery, glamorous evening with his trusty camera to capture the wholesome proceedings for a Broadway World exclusive.  Enjoy Conor's photo essay below and get tickets to today's final night of the Cabaret Convention HERE, an evening titled AS TIME GOES BY: TIMELESS TUNES that will be hosted by the indefatigable Miss KT Sullivan, Artistic Director of the Mabel Mercer Foundation, who oversees every aspect of The Cabaret Convention with dedication and devotion.
