Side Story. Candide. On the Town. Leonard Bernstein composed
some of the most memorable theater scores of his generation—but who was the
man behind the music? Join us for a thought-provoking evening of Bernstein
songs and stories in this edition of Conversations
in Concert, hosted by theater insider Ted Chapin.
Jamie Bernstein will pull back the curtain of her father’s complex persona,
sharing intimate moments and childhood memories from her book, Famous Father Girl: A Memoir of
Growing Up Bernstein.
Jazz pianist Bill Charlap & the Bill Charlap Trio will perform
Bernstein classics, including America, Lucky To Be Me, Some Other Time, Glitter and be Gay, Somewhere, and Cool.
Don’t miss this joyful tribute to America’s most iconic composer-conductor.
The American Song
series at NJPAC is presented, in part, through the generous support of the
Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation, the David S. Steiner and Sylvia
Steiner Charitable Trust, the Joan and Allen Bildner Family Fund, and the
Smart Family Foundation/David S. Stone, Esq., Stone & Magnanini.
