Very cool that Martin Short was there to support Bernadette!

So she performed for 90 minutes? This wasn't part of the Pops series?

It was around 90min. The set list was the same as the other concert.
Here is the set list:
“Let Me Entertain You” from “Gypsy: A Musical Fable”
“No One Is Alone” from “Into the Woods”
“There Is Nothing Like a Dame” from “South Pacific”
“Fever,” made famous by Peggy Lee
“Mr. Snow” from “Carousel”
“Some Enchanted Evening” from “South Pacific”
“In Buddy’s Eyes” from “Follies”
“Losing My Mind” from “Follies”
“Some People” From “Gypsy: A Musical Fable”
“Shenandoah,” a traditional American folk song
“Not a Day Goes By” from “Merrily We Roll Along”
“Goodbye For Now” from “Reds”
“When You Wish Upon a Star/A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes” from “Cinderella”
“You Could Drive a Person Crazy” from “Company”
“With So Little.../Children will Listen” from “Anyone Can Listen” and “Into the Woods,” respectively
“Being Alive” from “Company”
Encore: “Kramer’s Song” by Bernadette Peters

She tripped over her dress while singing "There Is Nothing Like a Dame” and incorporated it into the song by saying "no one trips like a dame". Remember how I said that hardly anyone waits at the stage door in Cali. Well, there were a lot of people at the stage door waiting for BP. Usually when I go and there is a large group of people the security make people form a line or use some sort of barricade like in NYC at the stage door. The crowd just swarmed her on her way to the car. She got in the car with Martin Short driving.
I saw Susan Watson from "Follies". I spoke to Marvin and he said that "Ruthless" is going to be on Broadway next year.

I'm so glad RUTHLESS will be on Broadway next year! I wonder if Bernadette might play Judy Denmark, like she did at that 1995 benefit performance in L.A.

He said the the little girl that played Tina in the off-Broadway production will play Judy. So, that would be Laura Bell Bundy, I'm pretty sure.
You'll still be able to hear Bernadette's voice in the production in "Unkie's Muncle".
