i didn't get to see her at the stage door.  i heard her perform a one woman "mostly sondeheim" show a few years ago. it was Sondheim songs as well as some of his favorites that other ppl wrote. She sang "ice cream" during that concert. one of the few times I saw someone get a standing ovation in the middle of a concert instead of just at he end. she was incredible! saw her today and she is still delightful at 83.

i saw this today, 4/4. I agree that most of the cut songs should be cut again. Really disappointed that Rose's Turn wasn't included. Ditto Have a Little Priest. Sad when i saw the teleprompter or Barbara, but for 83, she's still got a set of pipes! I didn't see her look toward the teleprompter once during the show. guess it's just a safety net. Vanessa Williams blew me away.
