Stars in the House—the daily live streamed concert series created by Playbill correspondent and SiriusXM Broadway host Seth Rudetsky and producer James Wesley—welcomes Tony-nominated composer Burt Bacharach (Promises, Promises) and Tony-winning lyricist and librettist Steven Sater (Spring Awakening, Alice By Heart) November 9. Watch the stream above beginning at 8 PM ET.
Bacharach and Sater have penned the new musical Some Lovers, a Gift of the Magi–inspired original story by Sater centered on a couple caught between their present and past. The musical had its world premiere at San Diego's Old Globe Theatre in 2011, with Sater and Bacharach continuing to work on and revise the work in the years since. A concert version played Lincoln Center in 2016, and a full production was held at London's The Other Palace in 2017. Broadway Records' concept album is now available digitally and will have a physical release November 26.
