Liz Callaway: The Story Goes On

[emma8thompson]

Why was that audience not cheering their faces off??

[MrZachpeter]

In the late 70s, I took a musical theatre class at HB Studio. I hadn't had any previous training. Anyway a young girl who had just arrived from Chicago was in the class and sang her song just before I did. She sang a song called, "Another 100 People" from Company. I just witnessed a future Tony Nominee, her name was Liz Callaway. I wanted to skip out of that class so fast, unfortunately I didn't, thats okay though, I witnessed the making of a star...good enough for me...

[ChristophePhilippe]

One of the great underrated songs...performed brilliantly.

[kupkrazee]

Thanks for posting. Liz hasn't changed much at all over the years!

[aaroplainsimple15]

Positively terrific powerhouse voice! excellent acting too!

[Puppies140]

WHOA! <3

[MusicLoverBrian1]

I remember watching this play at my college and it was a beautiful production. I remember this particular song from the play . . . . the musical arrangement and the lyrics. After watching that play I tried to find that song on Youtube and I'm glad that I could find it and I found it--the original version and this performance from Liz Callaway is BEAUTIFUL AND FLAWLESS! Her version of the song is the definitive one!

[SimlishSammy]

Her voice calms me down whenever I hear it. So beautiful!

[Aquaskincare]

So great to see the original version, did this show in 1989 best showbiz experience of my life playing 'Pam' but this will always be my very favourite song from the show, got me through many auditions!

[dago942]

YES

[actornewbs]

Thankyou so much from the UK for putting this up.Can't believe it,breathtaking,i had goosebumps too

[darrenzieger]

Just breathtaking. 4 minutes of goosebumps. I've seen some terrific performers in this role, from the audience and from the orchestra pit, But Liz owns this role. (OTOH, I did a production with Raul Esparza playing Danny, and I can't think of anyone else in the role).

Thanks so much for posting this.

[jsct66]

WOW! Thank you for posting! This is sheer BRILLIANCE. Never thought Id see this again after 26 years! Liz Callaway is amazing!

[athespiangirl]

This song makes me cry...so powerful and moving

[mnmsf]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was one of the very few that saw the musical...twice. Ok production but what talent and great score. Liz is always incredible. hrumphga...I totally agree.

[jdeslauriers]

I beat you! hehe... I, for some reason, saw it 4 times!

[mnmsf]

too funny! and very cool

[homeimps]

The musical is about three couple all expecting babies at the same time. But the husbands and wives all have different outlooks on the prospective new member of the family. For example, one couple is very late middle aged and the wife isn't sure she wants to have another baby now that the family has grown up. The score is fantastic.

[odalp]

This is BRILLIANT! Bring her back to Broadway!!

Thanks for posting.

[Jimsteinman]

great! what is this musical about?

[hrumphga]

I've seen many, many Broadway shows, but this moment in 1983 is my favorite, and I will NEVER forget it. I am so jaded about so many things, but I remain hopelessly in crush with Liz Callaway.

[jazzyspazzrawr]

she is so incredible!

[cefcute]

this is a great performance. But lea salonga's performance of this song struck me the most

[ahcdiva]

It's great to hear my sister's Broadway performance of this. Everytime I saw her sing this I wept. Thank you for posting this.

[Hoofer26]

Funny, if it's really you, I wept both times I saw you sing "blues in the night" in swing

[delpa1986]

I'd rather see Lea Salonga's performance than this.

[Hoofer26]

her voice is heaven

[choreo73]

I am a Callaway fan. So glad I found this. Amazing.

[clarkcny]

Oh what a joy!! I used to belt this one out in my basement, with Liz..Thank you so much for posting this...it brings back such wonderful memories of me as a boy belting out those wonderful showtunes. Does anyone think Sutton Foster has Liz's vocal quality?

[munkustrap33]

OMG, Sutton is TOTALLY #1 in my book, and after recently discovering the wonderful Liz Callaway I can completely agree!!!

[uptowngirl1219]

she is just...glorious. thank you for this clip.

[sethyny]

liz has possibly the most crystal clear and pleasant voice of the current broadway female powerhouses...it is a shame we don't see her on the boards enough. she was AMAZING at the stephen schwartz concert at town hall last night. love liz. LOVE! come back to the great white way soon...you are missed.

[peterc6482]

I first saw Liz Callaway sing this song at the first Broadway preview of Baby--11/8/1983. It was thrilling! The curtain went up very late and by the time we got out it was past 11:30 p.m.! I remember thinking that this was one of the most thrilling act-one closes that I had ever seen on Broadway.

[ronspivak]

Wonderful to have this clip of the original Broadway production. A piece of musical theatre history! Bravo!

[noisycanary]

Her pal Lea Salonga's version is more pleasant to the ears!

[jtcarey2]

consider two things...she was only 22 when she did this and in 1983 video recorders sound quality was not very good (it sounds tinny). I've never hear anyone say that Liz's voice wasn't or isn't extremely pleasant to the ears.

[jdeslauriers]

I remember her doing this many years ago. She was just beatiful!

[Garry24]

crystal voice!

[petulalou]

wow! this is incredible :)  thanks for posting. liz callaway is the best!

[msing18]

i love this song
