The schedule of performances is as follows:

Wednesday, July 11 -- Barbra: The Way She Was
Spend an evening with the kooky 1960's Barbra. The classic Barbra 60's TV specials will come to life with timeless hits including Don't Rain on My Parade and Starting Here, Starting Now – as well as songs that Barbra only recorded and performed in the 60's, including A Sleepin' Bee and Cry Me a River.

Wednesday, July 18 -- Streisand Songbird: Memories
Catch a more glamorous and mature Barbra as she reminisces about her entire career. The hits from the 1970's and 1980's classic albums (Stoney End, Superman, A Star is Born, and more) are included here, including Evergreen, The Way We Were, Songbird, and New York State of Mind.

Wednesday, July 25 -- Barbra, Back to Broadway
Tonight, in the heart of Times Square, Barbra takes over the Great White Way. It is a night of songs from Broadway shows that Barbra appeared in or recorded, from Some Enchanted Evening to Hello Dolly.
