LuPone was miscast as Norma. Close may not have the best voice for the role, but she truly understands Norma Desmond and does beautiful work with "As If We Never Said Goodbye" and "With One Look." It's a mediocre show made from one of the best films out there hearing a good actress turn it into something enjoyable is always nice. I have heard many people say that Buckley gave the performance of her career in this show though.
"Some people can thrive and bloom living life in a living room, that's perfect for some people of one hundred and five. But I at least gotta try, when I think of all the sights that I gotta see, all the places I gotta play, all the things that I gotta be at"
