’The Band’s Visit’ plus TED CHAPIN on Lyrics & Lyricists

The Band’s Visit’s actors Tony Shalhoub, Katrina Lenk and John Cariani discuss working on the powerful musical hit with co-hosts Jesse Green and Elisabeth Vincentelli of The New York Times and series producer Susan Haskins. Next up, we welcome multi-faceted producer Ted Chapin, who talks about his Lyrics and Lyricists series at New York City’s cultural-hub, the 92nd Street Y. His programs this season will include salutes to the work of songsmiths Irving Berlin, Lynn Ahrens, Frank Loesser, Bobby Darin and also “Lenny’s Lyricists,” about the work of collaborators with Leonard Bernstein, including Stephen Sondheim—and the team of Betty Comden and Adolph Green.
