Wonderful finds! When I read fan reviews, it always confirms the effect that Bernadette has on so many of us from so many walks of life.

Better late than never. From the Denver Post 2/24:
"Bernadette Peters has Broadway down pat
Bernadette Peters must be the greatest Broadway performer alive.
If there were any doubts, she exploded them during an electrifying, sold-out concert Saturday evening as part of the Colorado Symphony's pops series.
As hard as it is to believe, Peters turn 58 on Tuesday. She looks far younger, still bursting with energy, zestiness and sex appeal to rival any 20-something performer.
Though related in some ways to what can be heard in jazz clubs or cabaret rooms, Broadway singing is like nothing else. It can be big and brassy or slow and sentimental, but it has to have show-biz flair and emotional honesty at its core.
Peters presented a wonderfully varied program - familiar and not-so-familiar songs from Broadway shows past and present - with surprisingly complex lighting that significantly enhanced the evening.
For sass and spunk, nothing could top her all-out take on "There Is Nothing Like a Dame" from "South Pacific." Peters has a special affinity for Stephen Sondheim, and she offered memorable takes on several of his songs, including a touching version of "No One Is Alone" from "Into the Woods."
That's entertainment."

I love it! What a thrill to read all those superlatives.
Thanks PTM. I would have missed that review without your posting.
