Follies

Why, with Joel Grey, at Follies.

================

A partial post from somone on ATC, @12:01am, 2/13/07 (about Monday evening "Follies"):

"It was one of those rare and magical evenings of theatre with as man[y] stars in the house as were on the stage - Nathan Lane (who introduced himself at the party as Margaret Whiting), Marty Short, Bernadette Peters, The Brodericks, Barbara Cook, Matt CavanaughHarvey Evans and Fred Willard just to name a few. I spoke to Steve Sondheim after and he was on Cloud Nine - thought Vicki and Victor had really as he said, "nailed it perfectly tonight."

Love the pictures. Looks like she was having a great time--and why not? Must have been a very special night.

An old issue of Show People (Fall 2005) asked what Sondheim song she would like to take a "whack" at. She said, "Losing My Mind." "I think it would be an interesting journey for me."

That was one of the songs I was hoping I'd get to hear her sing at her Carnegie Hall concert since one article had said the second half was going to be Sondheim she'd never sung before or something like that.

I love the song 'Losing my mind'. Ever since I first heard it I've been imagining what Bernadette could do with it. It's such a moving song but with Bernadette's ability to convey emotion it could be really heart-wrenching. I think it would be a perfect choice for her!

I don't think I've read that interview before- does anyone know where I could find it on the internet? Cheers.

I love "Losing My Mind". Your post got me thinking of the London Hey Mr Producer! concert in 1998 and the Side By Side By Sondheim interlude ... a shame no-one thought to wrestle the song out of the iron grip of Michael Ball and give it to Bernadette to sing. I wonder what she would have made of it.

as Bernadette says....just keep moving on.....

OK so I know its rumored that Bernadette might be looking at Pal Joey (discussed under another post) but..there is talk that Follies will transfer to Broadway and Donna Murphy is already commited to LoveMusik. I would love to see Bernadette as Phyllis! I'm not sure if she's too Sally-like but she would tear up those songs.

I just found this old post and thought I would bring it to the top. The speculation and predictions is kind of cute now that we know what route she went.

It's hard to picture Bernadette playing Phyllis after seeing her as Sally. Though I would be interested in seeing how she would handle "Could I Leave You?" I bet she would do it somewhat like Donna Murphy at the Sondheim birthday concert, and make it really humorous.
