Life - full of glories, indignities, hopes, and quiet dreams - is the setting, and the stunning Kander and Ebb catalog is the inspiration for this hit revue.  Ingenious lyrics, perfect melodies and the insight of Broadway masters create showstopper after heart-grabbing showstopper from such shows as CABARET, THE KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN, THE RINK and the film NEW YORK, NEW YORK.
