Oscar-winning composer Marvin Hamlisch (The Sting, The Way We Were, The Spy Who Loved Me) talks to Elaine about creating A Chorus Line. He also reveals his Essential Musicals.
Elaine's special guest is the multi-award winning composer Marvin Hamlisch. It's been said his music changed the face of Broadway and Hollywood; so much so that the New York Times called him, "a genius". He and Richard Rodgers are the only two individuals to have been awarded an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, a Tony, and a Pulitzer Prize. He's also the man who introduced Elaine Paige to America and accompanied her at The White House.
Today, Marvin recalls writing A Chorus Line, The Way We Were and Nobody Does It Better. Plus, he reveals his Essential Musicals which include Gypsy, The Music Man and Sunday In the Park With George.
