The Starlight Cabaret returns to the great outdoors with one of the biggest extravaganzas to date to officially welcome Atlanta Pride back to Piedmont Park.
Held indoors at the Atlanta Civic Center in 2008, the drag cabaret goes back to its typical surroundings at the Coca-Cola Stage to close out Pride 2009.
"It's back under the stars again. Last year was amazing at the Civic Center, we had 3,000 people there, so this year will be bigger," said Tony Kearney, who performs in the Armorettes as Wild Cherry Sucret.
