Really? I didn't care much for it. Mostly because I think NIGHT MUSIC needs a Desiree that truly holds your attention...and I'm sorry but Ebersole was kind of dull. This is the second time I hear/see her in a show post-GREY GARDENS in which she uses exactly the same voice, mannerisms, and acting. She sounds exactly like she did when she played Margo Channing for Encores! APPLAUSE.
I do agree that her "Send in the Clowns" was exquisite, but I don't think it redeems the whole performance.
