Elaine Stritch at Home at the Carlyle: Singin' Sondheim?Again. Why Not?

Elaine Stritch sings in a skeleton key that somehow unlocks every song. Her curmudgeonly voice explodes with character—a tough yet tender blend of honesty and mordant wit. Tonight she reprises her 2010 set of songs by Stephen Sondheim; she's one of a kind, but be warned that she often struggles unsuccessfully to remember the brilliant lyrics.
