Christine Baranski might reprise her role from Sweeney or Follies.
Please no more Baranski Carlotta.

Despite the miserable direction, she wasn't a bad Phyllis in the Royal Albert Hall concert. Here there's her Could I Leave You?

Does anyone know: Will this only be available live, or can it be viewed later on the Broadway World Youtube channel?

I think this has turned out to be even more star-filled than the incredible 80th gala."
No scheduling issues now!

Can I send this ask?

Thanks for that clarification. The announcements were super-vague (maybe there were rights issues to clear up), so this is great to know.

With the amazing lineup of stars announced for the Met gala, I knew going it that it was going to be a lot of fun. What surprised me was how incredibly moving a lot of it was. To see these superb artists--literally the greatest opera stars of our era -- scattered all over the world singing from their living rooms, kitchens, and dining rooms was such a poignant and powerful reminder of what extraordinary times we're living in. I teared up a number of times. Thats the arts, for you.

I was in tears throughout! Especially during the intermezzo of cavalleria rusticana and Rene’s Ave Maria from Otello. And of course Anna’s finale was just magic.

Broadcasting to my tv through the YouTube app on my phone.. seems to work best for me rather that using YouTube on roku. Plus I get to read all the constant comments on my phone from idiots clamoring for their favorite stars that haven't shown up yet :/

Mayb they broke the interweb?

Wonder what the delay is? I surprised this couldn't get broadcasted on a TV station.
