Three-time Tony recipient Bernadette Peters, who returns to Broadway in Stephen Sondheim's Old Friends, graced the set of The Tonight Show and gave audiences a special performance.
Peters, recently seen in a Los Angeles engagement of Old Friends, reminisced with host Jimmy Fallon about her previous Tonight Show appearances with former host Johnny Carson. Peters recalled Oscar winner Shelley Winters teaching her how to swim during a commercial break and also spoke about Carol Burnett's influence on her early career. Peters, in fact, was the first guest Burnett ever signed for The Carol Burnett Show.
Broadway favorite Peters also treated the audience to a portion of the Sondheim classic "Broadway Baby," one of Peters' signature tunes that she sings in a group arrangement in Old Friends.
