Betty Buckley is the most amazing Norma and “the greatest star of them all.” She sings so powerfully and is known as the Voice of Broadway. She can tell a story through song like no other. Ms. B brings her characters to life and is an actor extraordinaire.

I saw both Glen Close and Betty Buckley in Sunset Blvd. Glen was great, but I thought Betty Buckley was the best!!

I saw Betty Buckley on Broadway (w/John Barrowman as Joe) and she was amazing. Her version is stirring & is my favourite of all the Norma’s. Thanks for posting all of the performances here for appreciation, Greg.
