Wow. That's quite the back-to-back indeed. So sad I was out of town for the Patti/Seth shows. Hopefully they'll bring them back sometime. How was Bernadette? I saw her the prior week in Orange County with a small chamber ensemble. While her upper register remained lovely and her beauty and innate comic timing showed no signs of waning, she was struggling vocally through most numbers. I've kept hoping that it was just an off night or that she had a cold or something. In OC she sang 'The Way That It Was' from Merrily and introduced it as one of the songs she'd be singing in the upcoming 'A Bed & Chair' Sondheim review. Her take wasn't particularly... jazzy, so will be interesting to see how that sound evolves. Was 'Ladies Who Lunch' also introduced as being from this forthcoming show?
