Posted: 10/12/06 at 11:52pmI am still watching/listening to it on tape. I am loving her banter between songs. She is singing the Sondheim song, Glamourous Life, right now. I am in heaven!

She sang three of my favorite theatre songs: Stars and the Moon, Bill, and The Glamorous Life.
I can basically die happy.
Oh, Audra... how are you so amazing?

This was FABULOUS! I enjoyed every second of it

Posted: 10/13/06 at 10:07amI have to admit to not enjoying her duet with Patti Lupone. I would have loved to see them do anything OTHER than the Streisand/Garland "Happy Days/Get Happy" number. They should have tried to create their own moment, rather than copying an iconic one.

It's on right now.
She's singing "Bill" from SHOW BOAT, and the story that went with it was really cute.

I just saw Audra perform in Michigan about 3 weeks ago, and I thought she was sensational.
I couldn't find this on my PBS. I hope they air it at some point.

It was fantastic. My PBS affiliate decided to play it at 2 and 4am today, for whatever reason.
Thank God for DVD-burning tivos. :)

I wish she would have sang My Heart as well. In all the press for the concert, it said she would be performing Neil Young, Adam Guettel and Rufus Wainwright - so did not do ONE of those composers.
I also find it very weird she didn't perform Build a Bridge on her special entitled, Build a Bridge. I know they used it as a metaphor for building a bridge between music theatre and pop - but still. Seems a bit odd.
But alas, I'm just happy Live from Lincoln Center decided to air this wonderful evening. I can't wait for New Years Eve!!

Posted: 10/14/06 at 8:55pmAudra was fantastic. Does anyone know which show the song "I Won't Mind" is from? Is it from a show? I loved it!

"I Won't Mind" is apparently from a show called "The Other Franklin", written by Annie Kessler & Jeff Blumenkrantz. According to Jeff's website:
Lizzie is wife to William Franklin, who is Benjamin Franklin’s son. After years of desperately wanting a child, becoming pregnant and ultimately miscarrying, she learns that she will never bear a child. She sings the song to her godson (her best friends’ newborn) in the nursery, while everyone else is in the next room celebrating the christening.
