Stephen Sondheim Meets Michael Silverblatt
Posted by Jason Diamomd I haven’t given this a listen yet, but I can pretty much assure you that it will be the sweetest thing you will listen to all week. I’m really hoping Sondheim makes a remark about the show’s new theme song, and says something like “I don’t care if it’s Sparks, it’s total crap. I’ll fart you out a better song right here, right now.” Listen: Stephen Sondheim on Bookworm.
