Deborah Grace Winer continued her 3-part Feinstein's/54 Below series of jewel box revues last night and BroadwayWorld was there. Check out the photos below!
The third edition and finale of the season was a celebration of Barbara Cook titled Till There Was You. Musical Direction was by Mark Hummel and direction by Mark Waldrop. Ms. Winer hosted a glittering parade of Broadway divas including Tony Award winner Karen Ziemba; Tony nominees Christine Andreas, Rebecca Luker and Laura Shoop; Linda Purl, Aisha de Haas, Natalie Douglas, Amelia Berry, and K.T. Sullivan, who raised their voices in celebration of Barbara Cook, one of the greatest interpreters of the American Songbook.
The walls of Feinstein's/54 Below have heard many great voices and a full house at Broadway's Supper Club heard some of the best at the celebration of Barbara Cook. There were lines around 54th street for the 2nd show.
Ms. Winer said "Barbara was maybe the greatest theatre singer of all time-and not just because that voice was the eighth wonder of the world. She was fearless in how she got inside a lyric and reflected back at us what it feels like to be human. But that was just part of who she was. I was lucky to know Barbara most of my life and to have a wonderful friendship. Whether she was putting together a new show or cooking her giblet gravy, Barbara was savvy and irreverent and hilarious to hang out with. We're so excited to gather this stellar all-woman cast to celebrate all different sides of Barbara, with stories and the fantastic range of songs she loved to sing."
