How to watch Stephen Sondheim’s 90th birthday party with Streep, Patinkin and LuPone

A man is known by the company he keeps, and what stellar company Stephen Sondheim will be keeping at “Take Me to the World: A Sondheim 90th Birthday Celebration.”

The concert’s socially distanced galaxy of stars includes — deep breath — Tony nominee Meryl Streep and Tony winners Lin-Manuel Miranda, Neil Patrick Harris, Bernadette Peters, Patti LuPone, Audra McDonald, Mandy Patinkin, Christine Baranski, Kristin Chenoweth, Sutton Foster, Katrina Lenk, Michael Cerveris and Brian Stokes Mitchell, all giving their regards to the legendary Broadway composer.

The festivities commence at 5 p.m. Sunday at broadway.com, facebook.com/Broadway and youtube.com. It’s free to stream but it’s also a fundraiser for Artists Striving to End Poverty, so donations are appreciated.
