“First rate fare … the audience filled the room with lusty laughs and applause.”
— the New York Times
Late Night with Leonard Bernstein is an affectionate portrait of the personal side of one of the 20th century’s most charismatic and public figures. Hosted by his daughter Jamie and featuring three stellar performers – soprano Amy Burton and pianists John Musto and Michael Boriskin – this acclaimed “multi-media cabaret” celebrates Bernstein’s non-stop creativity and the entertaining he did at all hours at home. A well-known insomniac for whom night was a time for creativity and friendship, deep introspection and revelry, Bernstein worked incessantly, often dazzling friends and guests until daybreak with charismatic performances across a wide range of musical styles.
