Скачать или смотреть David Hyde Pierce, Debra Monk - Fred Ebb Tribute

Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS' 24th Annual Gypsy of the Year Competition featured a tribute to legendary lyricist Fred Ebb, led by Tony Award winners David Hyde Pierce and Debra Monk. Ebb is renowned for his legendary collaborations with composer John Kander. Together, Kander and Ebb created some of the most delightful, smart and hilarious songs in more than a dozen groundbreaking and acclaimed musicals of the last 50 years, including Zorba, Cabaret, Chicago, Kiss of the Spider Woman and The Scottsboro Boys, winning three Tony Awards.

This year's Gypsy of the Year tribute to Ebb featured Hyde Pierce and Monk leading a reunion of the cast of Curtains and alumni from Chicago in a stirring finale tribute of "Show People," staged and choreographed by JoAnn M. Hunter.

The 2012 edition of Gypsy of the Year, which was presented in two shows on December 3 and 4, is the finale of six weeks of intensive fundraising by Broadway, Off-Broadway and national touring companies. The entire theatre community gathers for the competitive variety show, put on by the most talented singers and dancers in the ensemble of shows, known as "gypsies."
