On June 9th, The Town Hall will present "I Got Rhythm: Mickey and Judy's Hollywood," a musical feast of songs from films starring Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland. The evening co-stars the multi-award-winning cabaret performer Jeff Harnar and Shauna Hicks, leading lady of Broadway's "Blood Brothers."

Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland played opposite each other as pals and love interests in 10 lighthearted musicals from 1937 to 1949, which were major hits and premiered songs that endure to this day.  Their films include "Babes in Arms," "Strike Up the Band," "Girl Crazy," "Thousands Cheer," "Life Begins for Andy Hardy," and "Babes on Broadway."

Shauna Hicks was featured in Broadway's "Meet Me In St. Louis," and co-starred as Rosemary in a national tour of "How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying" opposite Ralph Macchio. Jeff Harnar has twice won the Manhattan Association of Cabaret Award (MAC) as Best Male Vocalist and three Backstage Bistro Awards.  He has appeared at Carnegie Hall in both the Cole Porter and Noel Coward Centennial Galas, and at other major cabaret venues in New York, around the United States and in Europe. His second solo recordings "Because of You: Fifties Gold", is a collection of pop classics from the songbooks of Tony Bennett, Nat "King" Cole, Doris Day, Johnny Mathis and Johnny Ray.
