The evening will be presented as, "a musical party to celebrate not only Lance’s birthday but his friendships with women and his love of the female voice."

Here's how the show is billed: "Direct from his acclaimed collaboration with Meow Meow at Berkeley Rep, Lance will present world premieres of songs from the new musical The $trip, selections from The Night Before My Wedding – Horne’s opera written with Neil Gaiman – and numbers from his acclaimed CD 'First Things Last.' There will be private reading of the collaboration with Gaiman on Nov. 10. Horne will also headline all-star Lance & the Ladies concerts later this season in Los Angeles, San Francisco and London, which will be featured on an upcoming album."

In addition to Thoms, Murney, Callaway, D'Abruzzo, Stravelli and Garyne, the lineup will be rounded out by star names Lesley Gore, Daphne Rubin-Vega and Lauren Flanigan.

Birdland is located at 315 W. 44th Street.
