"The boy from..." Faith Prince performed it at The Palladium right before all this craziness started, Billy Stritch on piano, and she was amazing!

Some personal highlights for me:
Katrina Lenk completely in her element with a gorgeous rendition of "Joanna."
Raul's powerful"Take Me to the World"
"Someone ina Tree"
Donna's gorgeous"Clowns"
Of course, "Ladies"
Jake/Annaleigh
Patti and Bernadette bothdoing quiet and poignant numbers.
"Im Still Here."
"
I'm Still Here was cute and moving..I was expecting Sunday but not disappointed at all "Someone in a Tree"

This was amazing. I think I enjoyed this more than his 80th. People really pulled out the deep cuts, and I feel the situation only enhanced Sondheim's words.
I appreciated how everyone truly gave it their all. No one phoned it in from home.

Bernadette Peter's subtle high notes are just as moving as ever.

Did it not bother anyone else that she changed the lyrics from her/she to him/he?
Just pick a different song if you can’t sing the actual words. This is to honor him. Sing his words."
What a ridiculous thing to say. She's been singing this song in concert for decades. Do you really think the man who currently has a show in which a role has changed gender is going to throw his arms up over a coupe of pronouns? Lord help yourself.

My god Bernadette's song was so fitting. "Hard to see the light now. Just don't let it go. Things will turn out right now".
Mandy is an EMPTY PARK singing #8? WOW
Raul and Donna and Judy gave incredible acting-performances.
LADIES WHO LUNCH WAS SO HILARIOUS.
So personal of Patti to do "whistle" rather than try and belt the house off.
What an AMAZING concert.

Did I miss something? Who and when did someone sing "I'm Still Here"?

It was the last song, and it was sung by a ton of different Broadway people. Kind of like a 'we are the world' moment

Keep watching after the credits. What a great show.

I'm catching up on this thread now and am shocked at all the complaints/comments about the technical difficulties, start time and it not being live. At least one person said 'pathetic'. Some people need to chill out.

I have been going to Broadway musicals since the Summer of 1970, when i saw the original production of Company...this was one of the most exciting and emotional and joyful evenings i have ever spent "at" the Theatre...so many great wonderful segments, too many to single out...but hearing Lin-Miranda sing Giants In The Sky, and Patti singing Anyone Can Whistle were 2 moments that really hit home with me as they are two of my personal favorites...but everyone involved should be so proud!!

Elizabeth Stanley. Period. Probably the best performance of The Miller's Son I've seen in my life. Brilliant, phrasing, diction, wow. That's how you live a song.

I am curious as to who belted out and held the last note longer than anyone else. So many faces that I could not find the singer

I'm not even a huge Kelli O'Hara fan, but I am surprised no one is noticing her brilliant reading of "What More Do I Need"?? Is it because of it's low recognition factor?
Posted: 4/27/20 at 10:25am
I was surprised we got nothing from West Side Story or Gypsy and that no one sang "Being Alive".

Signature Theater outside of DC had a female Reciter."
The earliest form of Kabuki was created by a woman to be performed by women who played both the male and female roles. They also 'performed' as prostitutes, which added to the popularity of the art form."
And my condolences to you on the passing of Peter Hunt.

I had so much fun with this last night, in spite of AND because of the delays. My social media feeds were blowing up with cabin fever-induced laughter and it wasn't like most of us had a late train to catch anyway. (I switched to the GLAAD concert feed for a while.) I can't wait to watch this again more uninterrupted.

actually the Twitterverse was lit up while Kelli sang...i think maybe because she was so early in the show people tend to forget as there were so many golden apples on this glorious tree of a show!

Very kind of you. 
Great show, always sad when a creative passes.
