If you're hot in the city this weekend (so what else is new) the best place to cool off is the Walter Kerr Theatre, where theater legends Elaine Stritch and Bernadette Peters have taken over the roles of Madame Armfeldt and Desiree Armfeldt in A Little Night Music. (The roles were previously played by Angela Lansbury and Catherine Zeta-Jones respectively.)  I loved both versions, but something specials happens when Elaine and Bernadette take the stage. Brava ladies.
