This is the concert I got to conduct when the big Broadway strike was over in December 2007.  The two things to watch are:

the terrifying moment I had when Bernadette was supposed to sing ”There…was….NO business, like no business”.  I had the orchestra holding and was ready to begin tempo on the word NO, but Bernadette forgot (!) and just sang “There’s NO business…” and my hands were in a “Hold” position to the orchestra and it was a Depends-filling experience.  Then, watch Jonathan Groff after he sing “T’were no business in restaurants…”.  I made him change it to “t’were” because it was one syllable (even though it made no sense) and right after he sang it, I started laughing and he saw me in the pit and started laughing.

We were hired by Hollywood video and fired on the day of the event.  Here’s the song we never got to sing in public!
