After a triumphant run last fall, Christine Andreas returned to 54 Below with a brand new evening of song last night and BroadwayWorld was there. LOVE IS GOOD is Christine's most personal show. Together with her husband, award-winning composer Martin Silvestri, Christine fashioned a warm, witty, and beautiful evening of music drawn from the American songbook and Broadway. The program also included some very personal original songs, performed with an energy that can only evolve with the intimacy of a 22-year-old musical relationship.
