"We shared the conviction that a film has to serve some key social purpose," wrote Streisand, "and the issues addressed in our television projects included the significant and disregarded history of women in film, the importance of gun control legislation ... gay adoption and one about non-Jewish rescuers who saved Jews during the Holocaust.", in which Corman broke the news to her that she was pregnant.
"It was the opening night of Funny Girl in London and I was upset because I felt like there was a strange atmosphere," recalled Streisand at the time. "Princess Margaret was there and I felt that people were watching her watching me, and that upset me. I came offstage and my friend Cis Corman whispered, 'You're pregnant.'"
She continued: "I'd been so involved in the show that I'd forgotten I'd given her a urine sample for a test. So there I was, standing there shaking people's hands on the opening night ... and I felt like all the praise and congratulations were because I was pregnant. The exuberance I felt that night with this wonderful secret; I'll never forget that."
