Nicole & I modeled together for years. She would sing while we were waiting to go on. I knew she would be huge. The PCD's were one thing, but her getting her flowers on Broadway brings me so much joy! 💐 🌹 🌸

I love Patti ❤ I already wanted so badly to see this production and her review makes me want to see it even more. It means a lot coming from her.

I’m glad she was able to appreciate it for what it was/is, because the production is truly fantastic! Such original staging and smart use/integration of media and lighting. Felt like the most interactive and engaging form of theater I’ve seen in a very long time. Nicole is certainly a powerhouse on all fronts. My partner and I have been raving about this since we saw it a few weeks ago. Go see it!

I became a HUGE fan of Nicole's when I saw a video of her singing, 'Don't Cry For Me, Argentina'. I mean...I *KNEW* she could sing, but *damn!!*

Love both these women for their magnificent voices & powerful performances.

Kudos to Patti for changing her mind and telling us! I've seen the show too, and the original NY production years ago. This blew me away-the points Patti made once she'd seen it coincided with my own thoughts.

I just saw Sunset Blvd. on Broadway last week, it is a stunning dark production and I can’t stop thinking about it. I saw the original London production many times including with Patti Lupone. This current production is haunting and dealing with the subject matter in the most “unmusical” way imagined. I feel so lucky that I got the chance to experience in person this production, it is a mile stone in the evolution of musical theatre! Run/Fly/Swim to see it if you can!

It’s a stunning production. So glad she loved it.

Nicole is PHENOMENAL, give her the Tony!!!

[rogerwelsh]

It’s not “lumbering”.
It’s a fantastic musical
The score is stellar and the script is wonderful

[FancyAF]

I saw it last month. Greatest performance I’ve ever seen. Nicole deserves the Tony.

[Lizwindsor]

Saw Nicole in London last year. It’s remarkable. A complete masterpiece. Nicole wins the tony.

Don't wait for a recording of this, it's not like Hamilton that can be easily recorded. You need to be in the theatre to really appreciate this masterpiece of a production, it's something else entirely

[FRADAVE]

Patti is know to be honest to a fault! She's a national treasure!

[realsjesus]

I saw the title and thought: LETS GOOOO!

[darinblass]

This review means more to a lot of people than Jesse Greene's and I love that

[percyweasley]

Her opinions really matters. She's honest..😊
