I saw the show in her second performance. It was a rush-ticket and I was placed in the very first row of the theater. Fascinating experience to see her acting “in close” on stage. RIP Great Lady 🌟🙏♥️

The clip of her working so hard on a piece without makeup, the struggle was real.

If there wasn’t enough money to pay Elaine Stritch what Bernadette Pters received, then I wonder if Angela Lansbury was paid the same as Catherine Zeta-Jones (who originated the role in the revival that Bernadette Peters did)?
