In an emotional high point, Streisand related that someone recently sent her a love letter written by her father, whom she never knew, when he was a young man. And yes, that woman, Esther Grodin, 92, is here tonight! And yes, Streisand launched into Papa, Can You Hear Me? For the top ticket price of $2,500, Streisand also threw in Somewhere, Send in the Clowns and Cry Me a River. Her fans willingly obliged...
