This will be 3 performances in The Rose Theatre of FPRose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center. Other events in the series include Audra McDonald, Tonya Pinkins and Rebecca Luker all in individual concerts.
The Great American Songbook series was the subject of other threads, a month or two ago.
I'll pop in the link directly.

Priest, HOW did I know you'd be excited? 
Edit - Jose, will those individual concerts be televised as well?

As of now, it's one of the PASSION performances to be aired on "Live From Lincoln Center."
This is a terrific series in the fabulous new Frederick P. Rose Hall.
The Audra McDonald concert and PASSION will be in The Rose Theatre, the other concerts will be in The Allen Room which overlooks Columbus Circle and Central Park.
The acoustics in both theatres are superb.

Posted: 12/13/04 at 9:24pmI saw the concert at Ravinia. It was wonderful. Much better than the Sunday in the Park concert.

Posted: 12/13/04 at 10:00pmLupone could be an amazing Fosca (if she keeps focused on he diction). Should be a terrific concert.

I did a yippee when I saw this. I missed the Sondheim celebration at the Kennedy Center a few years ago when they did Passion then. And I'm excited that Audra McDonald will be Clara. I think Patti LuPone will make a great Fosca.
Eagerly awaiting March 2005...
