With the awards ceremony currently in progress, conductor William Ross has just been announced as the winner of a Creative Arts Emmy Award for 'Outstanding Music Direction' for his work on the Streisand: The Concert, which aired on CBS earlier this year and is now available on DVD.
The production played 3 nights - July 31, August 1 and August 2 to cheering crowds, but the crazy part is - the final dress is done at 10am, in broad daylight and is open to the public, as the venue is a county-owned facility. People showed up in droves, for the run-through and cheered on the actors, the Hollywood Bowl orchestra and conductor Kevin Stites, who you will see is wearing a black, casual shirt for the rehearsal. The show's director, Richard Jay-Alexander, made a brief speech before the run, welcoming everybody, and in this exclusive footage, I was also able to catch him, in his dressing room, before the Opening Night performance.
