Was anyone able to catch her breathtaking performance last night as well? I could listen to this woman sing for DAYS! The show was titled Even Stephen, and she sang selections from 3 different composers: Stephen Flaherty (and Lynn Aherns), Stephen Schwartz, and Stephen Sondheim. Any other reviews?
Some of my favorite songs she performed:
"Journey to the Past" "Back to Before" "Lion Tamer" "Move On" (with Jason Danieley) "With So Little to be Sure Of"
I know this is bitchy, and I LOVE her AND Ann, but those two need someone to accompany them to the salon next time.
Two of the finest voices I've ever heard, though.
"Carson has combined his passion for helping children with his love for one of Cincinnati's favorite past times - cornhole - to create a unique and exciting event perfect for a corporate outing, entertaining clients or family fun."
Ahrens and Flaherty "The Streets of Dublin" by Jason Danieley alone "Forever Yours" as a weirdly arranged duet with Norm Lewis "Wheels of a Dream" by Norm Lewis alone "Back to Before" "Once Upon a December" "Journey to the Past"
Schwartz "Magic to Do" as a duet with Joshua Henry "Beautiful City" by Joshua Henry alone "Lion Tamer" "Out There" by Jason Danieley alone (he had a *lot* of trouble with the lyrics) "For Good" as a duet with her sister Ann Hampton Callaway "Meadowlark"
Sondheim "Another Hundred People" with delightful parodied lyrics ("Another hundred lyrics just fell out of my brain") and including snippets from "Sunday" and "Getting Married Today" "There Won't Be Trumpets" "What More Do I Need" "Pretty Lady" as a terrific trio by the three men "I Remember" by Joshua Henry alone "Being Alive" by Norm Lewis "Move On" as a duet with Jason Danieley "Losing My Mind"
And as an encore, "With So Little to Be Sure Of."
I might have forgotten a song or two. Any help from others who were there?
Liz is one of my very favorites and I am glad to see her in such a great show. I saw SWING! many times because I was/am in love with Laura B. and I don't recognize Ann at all. She has changed completely since that time.
"Company" "Corner of the Sky" "Waiting for Life" all a little mashed up
Ahrens and Flaherty "Nothing to Lose (But Your Heart)" "The Streets of Dublin" by Jason Danieley alone tape of a jingle recorded for MGM Air (?) "Forever Yours" as a weirdly arranged duet with Norm Lewis "Wheels of a Dream" by Norm Lewis alone "Back to Before" "Once Upon a December" "Journey to the Past"
Schwartz "Magic to Do" as a duet with Joshua Henry "Love Song" again with Josh "Beautiful City" by Joshua Henry alone "Lion Tamer" "Out There" by Jason Danieley alone (he had a *lot* of trouble with the lyrics) "For Good" as a duet with her sister Ann Hampton Callaway "Meadowlark"
Sondheim "Another Hundred People" with delightful parodied lyrics ("Another hundred lyrics just fell out of my brain") and including snippets from "Sunday" and "Getting Married Today" cute bit on her original Merrily parts "What More Do I Need" "Pretty Lady" as a terrific trio by the three men "I Remember" by Joshua Henry alone "Being Alive" by Norm Lewis "Losing My Mind" "Move On" as a duet with Jason Danieley "There Won't Be Trumpets" And as an encore, "With So Little to Be Sure Of."
What is "Nothing to Lose?" Is it from a new project? FYI: The song from LITTLE DANCER performed at Carnegie Hall earlier this year is gorgeous. But it's for a guy, so...
Anyway, I just wanted to chime in that I think Liz Callaway is glorious, and I'd kill to hear Jason Danieley sing "Out There", lyric flubs and all.
Thank you for the list of songs, Papa_Ge and stoneblue! and "Nothing to Lose" was on her last solo album, Passage of Time, and is beautiful. I first heard it at Liz Callaway's New Year's Eve concert a couple years ago.
