It is a musical "event" Jordan. That is all we are supposed to need to know. LOL.
While I genuflect at the mere mention of either Sondheim or Peters, I definitely would want to know more before plunking down $200 for an orchestra seat.

Tickets are on sale, you just may be hitting a date/seat selection that has nothing available (?). I just purchased a ticket this morning for my visit to NYC in Nov. Did not know about this and saw this entry on the Message Board and said GO FOR IT.
Got a decent seat too - Mezz side row B. Have only been in this venue once before for Bells Are Ringing Encores! event. LOVED the event space and LOVED that I got to see an Encores! production on one of my visits.
Hope this is good, with Sondheim and Peters how can you go wrong??!! (Yes, I love both of them).

Posted: 9/27/13 at 8:06pmHas Bernie sang jazz before? I mean when this was announced, and given Marsalis' being co-credited, I thought it was meant to be jazz versions of Sondheim.

Posted: 9/28/13 at 6:18pmGood to hear that Bernadette is active in the NYC concert scene *cough announce her as Mrs Lovett already*.
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

So, I gather it's a concert... Staged concert?
Should we expect to see more "Broadway names" up there?
'Cause, I've seen Bernadette before. I adore her, and coincidentally, jazz ... BUT, I'm not paying the dough if it's only her from the MT world.
