Liz Callaway is back at Feinstein's at the Nikko on May 8th and 9th with a brand new show centered around her long friendship with Stephen Schwartz. The musical cabaret THE WIZARD AND I has a subtitle to inform those not in the know - Liz Callaway Sings Stephen Schwartz - and although there may be those who attend the offering without knowing the play Wicked or that the song The Wizard And I is from Wicked, even without that information, The Wizard and I could simply refer to Schwartz and Callaway, themselves. Mr. Schwartz is, after all, a wizard in his own right. He is the genius who gave us Godspell and Pippin (along with the afore mentioned Wicked) and the pure poetry of “Colors of The Wind,” not to mention the super-popular Enchanted films, and scads of other beloved compositions that singers crave to sing, and music lovers long to hear. But to hear those songs interpreted by Liz Callaway is to take things to a whole new level. The possessor of one of the most distinctive voices in the industry, Ms. Callaway has taken that voice and her talents for acting and storytelling and built an industry for herself and a following for her art that any performer would dream of. At last night’s premiere performance of The Wizard and I, there were members of the sold-out nightclub who were so excited that they sang along, and one woman who, upon realizing that La Liz was about to sing her favorite song, vaulted from her chair and jumped up and down a few times. The love of Liz flowed freely throughout Broadway’s Living Room as the Emmy winner presented her usual high quality of entertainment, plus a little bit more.
