Bernadette Peters: Live in Australia (2009)

06/06/2009

Overview

Broadway star Bernadette Peters headlines the 2009 Adelaide Cabaret Festival and has the crowd on their feet for three standing ovations. From her opening number, "Let Me Entertain You," Peters brings wit, emotion, and her inimitable style to a range of musical numbers and pop classics. Highlights include a playfully sexy rendition of "Fever" from atop a grand piano, a heart-rending "Rose's Turn" (from "Gypsy") and a performance of her self-penned charity single "Kramer's Song." Featuring classics from Rodgers & Hammerstein and Stephen Sondheim, Bernadette Peters charms with her bubbly personality and hilarious banter, which are overshadowed only by the rich textures of her magnificent voice.
