James Naughton: The Songs of Randy Newman Live From Lincoln Center

James Naughton has played his fair share of scoundrels, lotharios and would-be legends. Tonight, he takes on the work of Randy Newman, who specializes in just those sorts of characters. Naughton serves up all of Newman’s sardonic wit, but don’t be surprised if this two-time Tony Award winner also gets you rooting for these characters.
