BETTY BUCKLEY
Congratulations to Betty Buckley for receiving a Drama Desk nomination for Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical for her work as Hesione in Triumph of Love. Buckley also received rave reviews for her recent concert work at the Proctor's Theatre in Schenectady. In her review for the Times Union, Michelle Solomon writes, "It would be hard to match the intensity performer Betty Buckley brings to the stage. During a two-and a-half-hour show Saturday night, the Tony Award winner and Broadway diva performed 23 songs ranging from her signature 'Memory' from Cats to Hank Williams' 'I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry.' . . . Backed by a highly stylized jazz quartet, 'An Evening with Betty Buckley' was one of the most exceptional musical evenings to pass through Proctor's this year . . . Highlights were her styling of Kurt Weill's 'September Song' . . . and 'With One Look,' in which she transformed herself into Sunset's Norma Desmond, the character she played on Broadway and in London . . .when Buckley was interpreting songs and bringing characters to life, it was the ultimate in musical perfection."
