Shirley Andress: Barbra Streisand, 1970sSat, March 13, 7:30 PM
Sun March 14, 3:00 PM
The Shedd Institute, Eugene, OR
The 1970s were a transformative decade for Barbra Streisand. Already established as one of the most celebrated entertainers in the world, she entered the decade determined to expand her artistic horizons, embracing contemporary songwriting, ambitious studio recordings, and a growing career in film. The result was an extraordinary body of work that produced some of the most enduring music of her career.
From the emotional storytelling of The Way We Were to the soaring anthems of A Star Is Born, Streisand's recordings captured the changing musical landscape of the era while remaining unmistakably her own. Throughout the decade, she moved effortlessly between intimate ballads, sophisticated pop, Broadway influences, and cinematic drama, creating performances that showcased both her remarkable vocal artistry and her ability to connect deeply with an audience.
This tribute explores that remarkable period through songs drawn from Streisand's landmark albums and films of the 1970s. More than a retrospective, it is a celebration of an artist at the height of her creative powers—a decade that produced some of the most beloved recordings in American popular music and solidified Barbra Streisand's place as one of the defining voices of her generation.
Join us for Dinners At Six after the evening performance and before the matinée!
