Need some summertime heat to chase away your winter blues? Get a sneak peek of Porgy and Bess starring Audra McDonald, Norm Lewis and David Alan Grier. On December 5, the cast wowed a press preview audience with classic Gershwin numbers like "Bess, You is My Woman Now," "It Ain't Necessarily So" and "I Got Plenty Of Nothing." After the performance, the cast and creative team gave us the inside scoop on one of Broadway's most anticipated revivals. Directed by Diane Paulus and featuring a revised book by Suzan-Lori Parks, Porgy and Bess will make its long-awaited Broadway bow beginning December 17 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

I have NEVER thought about this before...how do you sing a duet that's about to lead to a kiss, without singing right into your partner's mouth?? Both from a where is the sound going and where is the breath going standpoint?
