She’s still great! I’m so excited that she’s performing near me next month, in Kansas!….(Inge Theatre Festival)….why should LA and New York get all the fun? Can’t wait!
With many other young performers this would just have been stunt casting -- but Egan's fabulous comic timing (and, of course, strong voice) makes her worthy of the song.
I saw this Sondheim tribute on TV almost 20 years ago and I thought that Daisy Eagan's performance was the best one, by far. She was enchanting and a true B'way baby. There must be at least a dozen excellent versions of "Broadway Baby" (I love Bernadette Peters's) but this one is my favorite. Thank you, BestArtsSondheim, for posting this. I thought I would never see it again.
@BetsyGirl1976 I saw her in "the Wild Party" which ran here in L.A. about five years ago. I thought she was really cute. (And she was half naked in it).
I have to say, I really appreciate how genuine Daisy Eagan is. So many young performers are made to look and sound so much older than they are, but this was perfectly a genuine 11 (12?)-yr-old's performance; not too old for her age, nicely performed, and innocence in tact (hence the humor for this song!). I really respect the positive image people set for Daisy as a young girl
this is my favorite version of this song ..i hate it when like the 5 year old girls sing this u have to have a certain tone of voice .. i dont mean to be offensive to anyone

A feature on Daisy just appeared in the New York Times. She is quite a survivor.

I'll admit this is VERY fun to watch ... considering I'm accompanying her for her one-woman show tonight here in New York City.

I adore this song and singer... I think I'm pretty close to the same age as her. Makes me wonder what she's doing now.
