Is anyone else attending An Evening with Rita Moreno this Saturday in Los Angeles? I'm happy to see the show is sold out in their main theatre. If not, has anyone seen her solo show recently and could share any insight into what to expect? I'm looking forward to it!

Seems to be her one woman show that presenters can book.

I saw her a few years back with our local orchestra. She was incandescent. She told stories, sang many songs including two from Sunset in which she donned a turban and acted the hell out of them. I’d have killed to see her as Norma. She had limitless energy and her voice was incredible. A true living legend.

So happy I went! She was in great form and gave us a wonderful show. She's a captivating story teller and chose great songs (not that I can remember the set list). The audience was packed with Hollywood legends and smart fans who got tickets early enough. I would see her again should the opportunity present itself!
