Happy 80th Birthday, Stephen Sondheim!

It was like being on a secret mission……..over 300 Broadways singers gathered on Friday and Sunday to practice the piece “Sunday” from Sunday in the Park with George. Then, on Monday night, we surprised Stephen Sondheim, at the end of the concert at Avery Fisher Hall, by coming out into the house, filling the stage and aisles and singing “Sunday”. We repeated this all again on Tuesday night, but of course, it wasn’t a surprise this time. We got an e-mail yesterday telling us Stephen was moved to tears.  Mission accomplished!

If you look all the way to the right of the photo, you  can can spot Jacob and me on the stage.

Time to say Goodbye

Monday night, March 8, we had a gathering of Billys and friends at the Nook.  We were just hanging out, being ourselves - a little food, a little Wii, a lot of jumping around. I really have been lucky to make the friends that I have through both my dance and theater experiences. No matter what the future holds career-wise, I will always have these great friendships!
