BARBRA
STREISAND: A HAPPENING IN CENTRAL PARK (1968)
On the evening of June 17, 1967, Barbra Streisand and 150,000 of the
"luckiest people in the world" gathered together in Central Park's
massive Sheep's Meadow for a once-in-a-lifetime outdoor concert event.
If New York were a kingdom, Barbra was its reigning queen. It was the
most attended concert event of its time. Barbra turns the historic park
into her own "backyard" as she performs signature hits like "He Touched
Me," "People," "Second Hand Rose," and "Happy Days Are Here Again." An
extraordinary evening with an audience...the star they came to
see...under an open sky in one of the most beautiful settings
imaginable.
