As part of her current tour, legendary performer Barbra Streisand appeared at Madison Square Garden for an eagerly anticipated concert on October 9th.
As part of the tour, which also features the musical group Il Divo, Streisand will also visit Washington, D.C, Montreal, Toronto, Boston, St. Paul, Sunrise, FL, Atlanta, Atlantic City, Chicago, San Jose, Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Funds from the tour will benefit several charities.
A star for over four decades, Streisand received Tony nominations for her Broadway debut I Can Get It For You Wholesale and for her star-making turn as Fanny Brice in Funny Girl (she would receive a Star of the Decade, Hall of Fame Tony in 1970). Streisand would go on to recreate the role on film for a 1969 Oscar. She was also nominated for her performance in The Way We Were. She received another Oscar for co-writing "Evergreen" for A Star is Born and was similarly nominated for "I Finally Found Someone" from The Mirror Has Two Faces. Other film credits include Hello, Dolly!, On A Clear Day You Can See Forever, What's Up, Doc?, Funny Lady, Nuts and Yentl. She has also produced several of her movies.Photos by Walter McBride/Retna Ltd.
