The event is on Saturday, September 21.
On Saturday, September 21, Feinstein's at Hotel Carmichael will welcome the award-winning performer and Indianapolis native Adam B. Shapiro as he performs his brand new show - HOLLYWOOD OR BUST: Songs of the Silver Screen.
Since the first talking picture in 1927, music has played an integral role in the movies we love, and many songs have reached legendary status, being played and sung still to this day. During Shapiro's show, you'll hear songs from the splashy movie musicals of the 30s, 40s, and 50s, to the instantly recognizable theme songs of movies from the 60s, 70s and 80s. From Judy Garland to Elvis Presley to Kenny Loggins. And certainly, a healthy dose of Disney. There's truly something for everybody, so grab your popcorn, sit back and relax. It's HOLLYWOOD OR BUST!
Shapiro is an award-winning actor and singer who has performed all over the country and the world in both English and Yiddish. Most recently, he was Off-Broadway in the Drama Desk Award winning production of Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish, directed by Tony and Oscar winner, Joel Grey.

He became a content creator for them during the pandemic, producing and directing a massive online Chanukah Spectacular in 2020 that featured such performers as Billy Crystal, Carol Burnett, Mandy Patinkin and Mayim Bialik, among others.
Shapiro's other Off-Broadway credits include Bastard Jones, The Mikado-Reimagined, and the Drama Desk nominated production of Death of a Salesman in TV/Film. Audiences might remember Shapiro as the Cantor in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel or from FBI: Most Wanted, Master of None, Friends from College, 30 Rock, Adam Sandler's The Cobbler, and as Bella in HBO's Emmy-winning film, The Normal Heart.
