Sondheim in the City
Melissa Errico's cabaret-style tribute to Broadway’s greatest songwriter, Stephen Sondheim, offers an outward-driven, kaleidoscopic street fair of New York scenes and moments – summoning back to life the poetic vision of a man who once confessed that his entire creative life had been spent in a twenty-block radius of Manhattan.
First known for her starring roles on Broadway, including My Fair Lady, High Society, Anna Karenina, White Christmas, Dracula, and Les Misérables, Melissa has had a wide-ranging career from television and film to recording.
The New York Times call's Melissa Errico's recent tribute to Sondheim “A New York house tour of thrill and heartbreak.”
This concert honors the legacies of Judy Scheide and Nina Wainwright, who loved the Princeton Symphony Orchestra and were instrumental in the success of the PSO POPS! series.
