Off and on, I've been waiting over 30 years for a chance to see Eartha Kitt live. I wanted to, but my schedule wouldn't permit me to make it over to the Carlyle Hotel in New York when she was a regular there a few years back. Then, when she came to the Blues Alley in D.C., I didn't find out until too late. So it was a sheer delight to have her come back to D.C. as part of her 80th birthday celebration tour Saturday night at the Warner Theatre.
