Kennedy Center honors Jerry Herman


I just saw it on Youtube and the clips from the film Hello, Dolly! are among the highlights of the Jerry Herman tribute, And then we see Carol Channing onstage croaking a few lines from the title song she made famous. Channing is still kicking but the chorus boys take over a few short seconds after.

Streisand wasn't present at the show but the clips were long enough. After all, here is the greatest star performing Dolly on the screen! Channing was a good sport for allowing this to happen. No clips from the film version of Mame were shown since it was Angela Lansbury who hosted the Herman segment. Good for Angela!
