I'll be in NYC for the week of Nov 14, and it shows the Groban is out that week. Do you think there will be discounts available? I couldn't care less about Groban, I just want to see Ashford and the show. Thanks!

I'm so excited about seeing her tomorrow night in Chicago! That setlist has a little of everything I've loved about Barbra. Hearing "My Man" live is gonna destroy me. hehehe, I can't wait.

" "Two's Company" was a big hit in the UK. Stritch carried it for four seasons. She wasn't exactly a novice when it came to TV, regardless of which side of the pond she was on.

If NBC decides to do this again next year, I have a feeling it will be The Wizard of Oz. This formula can only work with a big star and a family-friendly show that everyone in the world knows. Other R&H shows like The King and I or Oklahoma could work, as could Grease, My Fair Lady, or Mary Poppins. Personally, I'd love to see them tackle White Christmas. If ABC/Disney decides to get in the game, Beauty and the Beast would be perfect in this setup. And if we're fantasizing, I certainly wouldn...
