Wonderful Town – A Walking Tour with Jamie Bernstein

Wonderful Town – A Walking Tour with Jamie Bernstein

Writes Jamie Bernstein: “Come along!” booms the tour guide in Wonderful Town’s opening number, “Christopher Street.” This 1953 Broadway show – book and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and score by my dad, Leonard Bernstein – is a love letter to the dizzy, bohemian good old days of Greenwich Village, as seen through the adventures of two sisters from Ohio. All these years later, I’m inviting you to “come along!” as I retrace some of the Village spots that appear in the show, plus a few additional points of interest.
