Is the video freezing for anyone else? On my computer it hasn't played for more than 10 seconds at a time.

How'd Elaine Stritch get away with saying "g*ddamn"?

And what did she mutter as she was walking offstage? "They're so bored?"

LOL!!

Nathan's opening was a little odd when you can't really hear the laughter after the jokes.

My mom wanted me to go exercise. Have I missed Brian d'Arcy James and Idina Menzel? They're the reason I want to see this.

Brian was fantastic, and Karen sounds great. I doubt she's going to do the choreography though.

This is more intimate than I thought it would be.

Loved Nathan asking the crowd to work with him.

Wish Audra had chosen something else to sing but she's there and looks fabulous!

Has anyone been keeping track of the performances? I just turned it on and I'm curious who/what I missed.
