“I haven’t had a worse streak of luck before in my entire life,” says Broadway star and Birmingham native Elaine Stritch. “I have had two difficult falls resulting in a hip replacement and a pelvic fracture. A third fall on Madison Avenue in New York City resulted in surgery and the loss of vision in my right eye. I’ve been a little hard hit. I am 88 years old and it was time to move to Birmingham and leave New York.”

Soundtrack to my Day: Drak Monday • Elaine Stritch

Soundtrack to my Day: Drak Monday • Elaine Stritch | music-all | Scoop.it
This evening's taste treat comes from Elaine Stritch, The veritable Broadway generator, capable of lighting up any stage with with just the first words of any Sondheim song. Well, a song by any of the great songwriters who have written for the some of the most talented men and women around. Earlier this year, Stritch announced to the world she would be moving out of New York City, to Birmingham, Michigan, to be closer to family. The following clip was at the Royal Variety Performance in 1979, at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London. Someone was smart enough to ask Elaine to sing "It's Today" from 'Mame', with music and lyrics by Jerry Herman.

Elaine Stritch is 'Still Here' in 'Shoot Me' poster -- EXCLUSIVE - Entertainment Weekly | music-all | Scoop.it

Now 88 years old, the Tony-winner and three-time Emmy winner has finally slowed down a tad. (She “retired” last spring from her regular one-woman show at Manhattan’s Carlyle Hotel and moved back to Michigan, where she grew up.) But Chiemi Karasawa‘s documentary, Shoot Me, which premiered at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival, captured the dame’s last year or so in the Big Apple. It’s extremely poignant and fun; you see Stritch from all angles, revealing that there’s not an inauthentic bone in her body.
