    "Sunday" for Sondheim

    Hi friends, this week we’re honoring the life and legacy of Stephen Sondheim. The luminary musical theatre composer and lyricist passed away on Friday, November 26th, at the age of 91. Today I’m bringing you behind the scenes at Sunday for Sondheim, a tribute from the Broadway community. You’ll hear from Fergie L. Philippe, Erich Bergen, and Brian Stokes Mitchell about Sondheim’s impact on their lives… Lin-Manuel Miranda reads from Sondheim’s book: “Look, I Made a Hat!” and the Broadway community’s rendition of, “Sunday,” from Sunday in the Park with George sung in it’s entirety. To watch the performance, head over to bwaySHO.com. Thank you, Sondheim. There truly are giants in the sky. Thanks for listening to the 32nd episode of bwaySHO: The Podcast!
