Today, I'm going to Angela Lansbury's final performance in A Little Night Music. It's Tony winner Catherine Zeta-Jones' final performance too. I was there for their first as well. They both began on November 24, 2009. Angela has been there for around 199 shows and Catherine slightly less.
It's no secret that I haven't loved this production. But, it's Angela Lansbury. How could I not see her perform live on Broadway just one more time? It might not be her last, but for my money seeing Angela in a Sondheim show on Broadway is about as good as it gets.

Here's a toast to the loveliest lady on Broadway! Good luck on your last performance matinee, Miss Lansbury! And we know you'll be back!
