Cabaret returns to the Museum of the City of New York this weekend with two performances of "Razzle Dazzle: The Lindsay Years on Broadway."

Penny Fuller, Michael McElroy, Jason Graae and Brigid Brady are scheduled to perform in the shows, which will feature songs that ran on Broadway while John Lindsay was mayor of New York City, 1966-1973.

The cabaret is held in conjunction with the museum's new exhibit "America's Mayor: John V. Lindsay and the Reinvention of New York," which explores Lindsay's tenure as mayor during the civil rights and Vietnam era, a period in which New York experienced its own share of upheavals as well as redevelopment. Lindsay helped create the TKTS discount-ticket booth in Times Square and established the special theater zoning district. He was known as "the Broadway mayor" for his hobnobbing with theater stars.

"Razzle Dazzle" will feature songs from "Hair," "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever," "Follies" and other musicals of the '60s and '70s. Showtimes are 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, June 5 and 6. Tickets cost $20 for the general public. The Museum of the City of New York is located on 5th Avenue at 103rd Street. For reservations, call 212-534-1672, ext. 3395, or go to www.mcny.org.
