2. Bernadette Peters
May 1
At Lincoln Center; Broadway at 62nd St; 212-875-5000
They saved the (arguably) best for last: The “American Songbook” series wraps up with a performance by the Queens-born Broadway superstar, singing personal favorites with full orchestral accompaniment. (Expect lots of Sondheim.)
