Encore: Barbra and Broadway Cares

Sep 2007


The auction table at Sunday's Broadway Cares flea market

Four years ago, we brought you a report of Barbra's fundraising donation for the annual "Broadway Cares" flea market. We're happy to report that Barbra has again provided an interesting lot that was recently auctioned at this year's sale.

Barbra Supports Annual Fundraiser Once Again
Sep 22, 2007 - The annual Broadway Cares flea market will be staged tomorrow, September 23, in New York's Shubert Alley. Barbra Streisand, who usually donates something unique for their annual auction, has come up with a set of exciting items for this year's event.

According to Broadway Cares, lot #45 of the live auction includes three slightly different CD versions of Barbra's European concerts, along with an advance copy of her upcoming European concert DVD. An autographed concert brochure, t-shirt, and a limited edition photograph round out the Streisand auction lot.

If the Broadway Cares listing is accurate (but note: their listing might actually be incorrect), then we might expect Barbra's European concert to be released on DVD. At the very least, this bodes well for the inclusion of some interesting bonuses with the upcoming DVD release.
