Olivia's new "Live From Sydney" concert will re-air on January 14th at 8pm on Channel 21 - WLIW New York Public Television

Filmed at the Sydney Opera House in March 2006, the homecoming concert features career-spanning hits from Olivia’s early country music beginnings (“Let Me Be There,” “I Honestly Love You”) to the sing-along classics that cemented her pop icon status in Grease and Xanadu that are thrilling new audiences on Broadway today (“You’re the One That I Want,” “Summer Nights,” “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” “Magic,” “Xanadu”). Backed by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, the beloved songbird also reinvents her ’80s smash “Physical” and covers Bob Dylan’s “If Not for You” and Dolly Parton’s “Jolene.”
