Posted: 12/9/07 at 8:44pmI saw her less than 6 months ago and it's the same set she's had for a while....lots of Sondheim.

Posted: 12/9/07 at 8:46pmDoes she ever sing anything from Mack and Mabel other than Time Heals Everything in her concerts? I'd love to hear her take on Wherever He Aint or Look What Happened To Mabel these days... I'd also love to see her add Only Wounded (from one of her much older albums) to that concert set...

I saw a very abbreviated version of her concert a month or two ago.
Sondheim and South Pacific ruled the set.

Posted: 12/9/07 at 9:40pmI saw her in Aug. and yeah her act was pretty much what was already said. She pretty much did a few songs from each show she had done on Broadway. She also sang "Fever"... I don't have a song list because it was a benefit (no program) and only about hour and a half long with no intermission. So I may not have seen the full set. She was incredible.
9/18 - Brian Stokes Mitchell, Cincy Pop's
9/28 - Death Of A Salesman, Wright State

Posted: 12/9/07 at 9:44pmyes, i saw her in nashville within the past 7 months and she does the same stuff which is still GREAT. many of the same things as the carnegie hall "sonheim etc." recording. she did do a really great "fever" lying on top of the piano, and she ended the show BEAUTIFULLY - the concert had a special collaboration with a local animal shelter to promote adoptions, and as an encore she came out with an ADORABLE puppy lab and sang "count your blessings instead of sheep" to him. it was gorgeous
