Photo Flash: Liza Minnelli and Barry Manilow Cheer Lorna Luft at Birdland

On Tuesday, February 11, singer Lorna Luft debuted her new nightclub act at Birdland - and there were some showbiz heavy-hitters in the house to cheer her on! Lorna's bff Barry Manilow (on his night off from an 8-show week of Broadway concerts) led the applause, sister Liza Minnelli started the first of many standing ovations, and playwright/actor Charles Busch cheered heartily.

Scroll below for photos from the concert!

The concert, titled "Lorna's Living Room," will return to Birdland this coming Monday, February 18 at 7pm, with special guest Ann Hampton Callaway.
