• You just heard Liza Minnelli singing “City Lights” from Kander & Ebbs, The Act, showcasing today’s theme of New York City. I have always found New York to be a special place in the fall and today’s show is going to highlight all things New York.

• We are going to start off with “N.Y.C.” from Annie and then go into “New York, New York” from the 2015 revival of On the Town. Here’s “N.Y.C.” as we salute New York City.

• We are honoring New York City today which I’ve always felt was a special place in the Fall. We are going to open this set with “Put on Your Sunday Clothes” from Hello, Dolly! Although the song opens in the New York town of Yonkers, the cast sings about going to New York City. Then we are going to hear Andrew Garfield and Company sing about “Boho Days”, living the Bohemian Life in New York from the Netflix movie of Jonathan Larson’s tick, tick…BOOM!. And we are going to close this set with “Skid Row (Downtown)” from the movie soundtrack of Little Shop of Horrors. Here’s “Put on Your Sunday Clothes”.
