There are few people in the entertainment world who are known and revered almost universally. Barbra Streisand is one of those people. She has been in show business for virtually all of her adult life. She has been everywhere and done everything there is to do, making her a permanent part of the entertainment landscape. Her name alone speaks volumes every time it’s spoken or shown in lights. Yet, more than 60 years after she burst onto the scene, Streisand remains relevant, continues to tour, and can still draw an audience. If you ever get an opportunity to see Streisand perform live, it’s an opportunity you won’t want to miss, and it’s bound to be a night you’ll never forget.

Quadruple Threat

Streisand is a proud member of the exclusive EGOT club, meaning she’s won an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, and a Tony award. She won a major award for the first time in 1964, winning a pair of Grammy’s for Best Vocal Performance and Album of the Year. It then took her a mere half-dozen years to complete her EGOT after being given the Tony’s Star of the Decade award in 1970. In many ways, the award was a testament to how much of the entertainment landscape Streisand owned in the 1960s, as she won an Oscar, an Emmy, and four Grammy’s while also staring in two long-running Broadway shows. From there, the awards kept on coming, with Streisand owning 10 Grammy Awards, four Emmys, and two Oscars, with most of her Oscar and Emmy awards coming for musical performances.

A Lifetime of Hits

When seeing Streisand in concert, you never know what songs you’ll hear, but you’re guaranteed to hear plenty of hits. Throughout her distinguished career, Streisand has released three dozen studio albums and over 100 singles. That doesn’t even include live albums or soundtracks and other compilations. She literally has a lifetime of songs in her repertoire, including all of the songs she’s performed in movies and musicals. The good news is that there’s always a good chance you’ll hear your favorite. Streisand’s concerts typically consist of at least 20 or 30 songs, which means you’ll hear a good mix of hits, B-sides, and even covers you never thought you’d hear from Streisand. In other words, no one will go home disappointed.
