Elaine Stritch At Liberty Movie Review Elaine Stritch At Liberty DVD Without question one of the Grandes Dames of Broadway, Elaine Stritch has a career spanning over 50 years with diverse roles in Rodgers and Hart's Pal Joey, Noel Coward's Sail Away, and most famously, Stephen Sondheim's Follies and Company, as well as numerous films and award-winning television series. Now at 77, she's as dynamic as ever, giving an astonishing performance in this highly acclaimed one-woman show. In a series of vignettes punctuated by songs from the shows in which she starred, she tells stories from her career ranging from the hilarious to the deeply moving. Hear about her disastrous but extremely funny date with Marlon Brando, her standing in for Ethel Merman in Call Me Madam in New York while performing at the same time in Newhaven in Pal Joey, working with Noel Coward, failing to get a starring role in The Golden Girls after insulting the writer, and her ultimately successful struggles with alcohol and diabetes. Songs include: "Broadway Baby," "But Not for Me," "I've Been to a Marvellous Party," "The Ladies Who Lunch," "There's No Business like Show Business," "Zip," and "I'm Still Here!"

Recorded at Right Track Studio, New York, New York on August 10, 2003.
"Avenue Q has not been authorized or approved in any manner by the Jim Henson Company or Sesame Workshop, which have no responsibility for its content," reads a disclaimer found, among other places, inside the CD booklet for the original Broadway cast album of Avenue Q. It's an important statement to keep in mind, because, in essence, the show, with songs by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, who are also credited with the "original concept," asks what would happen if you crossed the children's television series Sesame Street with the gritty, urban Broadway musical Rent. Or, to put it more plainly, suppose all the puppets on Sesame Street had potty mouths? What if, for example, Bert and Ernie (or, as they are called here, Rod and Nicky [John Tartaglia and Rick Lyon]) were closeted gays ("If You Were Gay")? What if Cookie Monster (sorry, Trekkie Monster [Rick Lyon again]) craved not baked goods, but pornography ("The Internet ...

Elaine Stritch At Liberty film
$12.59
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
Composer: Jeanine Tesori.
Lyricist: Tony Kushner.
More of a pocket opera than a conventional musical, Caroline, or Change is the work of playwright Tony Kushner and composer Jeanine Tesori. The plot, which concerns a black maid in a Jewish home in Lake Charles, LA, in the fall of 1963 and her relationship with the family's eight-year-old son who absent-mindedly leaves change in his pockets, might more appropriately have been applied to a short story. But Kushner, who needed two separate, very long plays to encompass his Angels in America, doesn't write miniatures. So, the slight story is made to bear the burden of American race relations and the trauma of the Kennedy assassination. Tesori, who wrote the new songs for the stage production of Thoroughly Modern Millie, sets Kushner's lyrics and dialogue to familiar styles of the period. This is a show in which inanimate objects -- a radio, a washing machine, a dryer, a bus, the moon -- are all alive and singing, and Tesori gives them each a genre. The radio, for example, personified by a female ...
