It was an incredible experience. And hear Sarah Brightman performing as Norma, was amazing. I was moved to tears by such vulnerability and power in her act. It was truly a masterpiece.

Did we watch the same show? Are we just going to pretend like she didn't have to talk her way through an entire number while the rest of the cast is sang because it was in too low of a register for her. The Lady's Paying is the song I'm referring to. Either you're blinded by your loyalty to Sarah Brightman or you weren't at all familiar with the show prior to walking in. Either way the vast majority of critics absolutely slammed her performance and deservedly so

Ever since seeing this in July, Tim Draxl's version has been stuck in my head on and off. My absolute favourite number from the show, and I'm so glad it's available to loop on youtube over and over!

I've seen 4 Joes in "Sunset Blvd" all around the globe ... Alan Campbell (Broadway), John Barrowman (West End), Hugh Jackman (Melbourne) and Michael Cormick (Sydney concert version). Tim Draxl"s voice is utterly perfect for this role - rich, masculine, desperate and dramatic. Am seeing the show this Saturday night at the Sydney Opera House ... can't wait!

I don't know why Sarah is getting not great press over her portrayal. Yes she isn't like other performers. Her Norma is not a one note crazy person. She is fragile, near the edge, emotional and hurt. She is also clearly delusional. And then snaps at the right time. It's quite good.
@theatremattersau
@theatremattersau 6 ай бұрын
We agree. There are actually quite a number of very positive reviews about Sarah's performance. They're just not the reviews going viral. Sarah gives a very ethereal and fragile performance, and it's quite perfect for Norma.

I've seen the show twice now. Once during preview week and again last night. The first time sarah was holding back but apparently she was ill. Last night she was spectacular! Her voice was full and powerful. The whole show was better, more energy now they have settled in. But Sarah was wonderful last night. I was front row so got to hear her voice directly as well as through the speakers 🤓

I think it's classier and nicer to say her voice isn't for everyone, and that's ok. She's very different to other Normas, but I think people are being quite mean about her performance in this show. I will also say Silvie Paladino's Norma is amazing so if someone wanted to see the show but Sarah is not their taste, go on a Silvie day. You won't be disappointed.

Have you actually been to the show? Tim plays Joe impeccably and definitely portrays him as jaded and bitter. The rendition in this clip is quieter and more reserved than we got live, and I attribute it to the fact this was early, and a media call rather than a full show.

You are right but as the show progressed, Tim got way better at emphasising the oomph, gusto and cynicism. As the previous person wrote, this was filmed at a media call with no audience and you can really feel the low energy because of that. By the end of the shows run in Melbourne, Tim was as edgy AF in this song. You couldn’t take your eyes off him. Later on in the show when he tells Betty she can come over and swim in the pool - the venom in his voice was palpable. By the time this opens in Sydney I think the reviews will be more positive.
