Live At Lincoln Center

[barcelona20]

How about this show on PBS so far?   Quite the 4 person cast they've assembled.  And Annaleigh is the best.

[Babe_Williams]

Watching! Can not wait for the West Side Story numbers. Hoping for a Tveit/Osnes duet of Tonight.

[John Adams]

Are you talking about the Hurricane Relief special?

For those who are, like me (just now) reading this: tune in for Higher Ground: A Hurricane Relief Benefit, Live From Lincoln Center

[barcelona20]

Huh? We're talking about New Year's Eve: Bernstein on Broadway. 

[OlBlueEyes]

Kelli O'Hara and Matthew Morrison have the rights to that balcony scene.

Not crazy about Christopher Kackson so far.

Yes, he's out of his element.

Depends on your PBS station. I found it (and am currently watching) via: Higher Ground: A Hurricane Relief Benefit, Live From Lincoln Center

Regardless - THANKS to barcelona20 for bringing it to my attention

I agree.

 

[OuttaTowner]

Concur with you. Ashford, Osnes and Tveit are pretty sublime. But Jackson? Ugh. He’s reaching for notes, left and right. Wishing Tony Yazbeck was there. Anyway - looking forward to West Side Story. Happy 2018 all!

I'm watching this and like it but I really don't get why these Bernstein concerts have to be so loaded with testimonials about what an amazing swell guy he was. I'm sure he was charming and fun but these "Lenny was so swell" anecdotes wear thin the 500th time you've heard them.

[Babe_Williams]

That West Side Story segment was amazing. Tveit and Osnes were fantastic.

[OuttaTowner]

Agree! Beautiful! Voices like butter.

They both looked a bit taken aback to be called back out! Well deserved.

They take second place to Annaleigh's dress.

Thought the same thing. That dress was a knockout! As were Tveit and Osnes

[uncageg]

Yeah, that dress is amazing. But Osnes stepped up with the burgundy dress. An enjoyable and classy concert.

 

[OlBlueEyes]

Hoping to get Osnes and Yazbeck back together for their joyous "Crazy for You."

She had this to say in an interview on the Lincoln Center site:

LO: Now that Bandstand is over everyone is asking what's next, and there's a potential Broadway revival of Crazy For You that we actually did at Lincoln Center last year, so that was amazing. The goal is to come to Broadway in the 18–19 season, so that's hopefully on the horizon unless something else comes along. "

[OuttaTowner]

And we may get Tveit back on the boards in Moulin Rouge....

I was at Lincoln Center for the show tonight. It was amazing. I agree with everyone about Osnes, Tveit and Ashford. Jackson was terrible, but not as good as the others. On a bus on my way home to Boston now, but the show well worth the trip. I set my DVR to record the show on PBS. Looking forward to watching it again.

dose anyone know if this will be re-aired or uploaded to the PBS website?

[Babe_Williams]

Does anyone know if the Lincoln Center or PBS will post clips of the show on YouTube or elsewhere? I would love to rewatch part of it.

[yankeefan7]

Enjoyed the show, especially Laura Osnes and Aaron Tveit.

[nealb1]

Really enjoyed the show last night.  It was very good - all 4 of them.

Such kvetching.

[broadwaybabywannabe2]

Tvieit singing "Maria" for me was the highlight!!

Ah. I sorta hope something else comes along for her. I think we'd all kick ourselves if we didn't let Mara Davi play that role - especially opposite Yazbeck. I love Laura, but I think Mara is much more suited for it.

And, yes, they usually post their episodes on the PBS website for limited time free streaming!
