Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Pretty Rough!
Review: What a missed opportunity. Opening, awful, Julie Andrews' clothes, dreadful, Nathan Lane wasted, even the sometimes wonderful Linda Eder is well below par. And as for Michael Crawford, words almost fail me.
But not quite!
He is, quite simply, awesomely UNtalented, not to mention downright strange, with all the stage technique of a gibbon and the charisma of a stoat. Praises go to Adam Pascal and that wonderful choir, but as for the rest, avoid.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Great performance, bad producing
Review: What an abundance of talent! What poor sound quality! :( This video would be a gem if the producers had put just a little bit more money into the recording equipment. Each time a performer sang, it came through the television as a mangled buzzing kind of noise. If you are looking to spend money on a Broadway video, buy "My Favorite Broadway - The Leading Ladies" not this video.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's a Grand Night for Singing...
Review: Whatever you love about music- passion, rousing chorus numbers, or just plain fun- is demonstrated in this enchanting concert. Broadway veterans such as Chita Rivera, Robert Goulet, and Nathan Lane share the evening with newcomers Adam Pascal, Heather Headley, and many others. It's a delightful evening of music that demonstrates what Broadway is all about. It captures so many human emotions (Bebe Neuwirth's delight that "Someone Loves Me!" to Michael Crawford's musings that "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face"). The climatic ending with Julie Andrews singing with Crawford completes a truly enchanted evening.
