Runtime: 90 minutes · no intermission
Award-winning actor Steven Brinberg makes his eagerly awaited return to Walnut Street Theatre after 4 previously sold-out appearances with his acclaimed homage to Barbra Streisand. For over 25 years Steven Brinberg has performed SIMPLY BARBRA on stages across America, Australia and the U.K. SIMPLY BARBRA is a love letter to, and a comical look at, one of the greatest stars of our generation. You'll hear classics including "People," "Evergreen," and "Second Hand Rose" so beautifully that if you close your eyes, you'll swear you are listening to the diva herself. You'll experience the Barbra we all know and love, especially between songs when she (he?) relates snippets of gossip about her marriages, wisecracks about her movies and talks about the latest news and gossip. As a special treat the evening will also include amazing vocal impersonations of Julie Andrews, Cher, Bette Davis, Ethel Merman, Carol Channing and more! This one night only event will also feature two surprise Walnut Street Theatre guests our audiences know and love who will each sing a duet with Barbra! Don't miss this one night only event that critics have called a scintillatingly funny, unnervingly accurate and touchingly true tribute that is in touch with Streisand's very soul, spirit, voice and above all, ego!
