Betty delivers a powerful, chilling performance in the tragic finale of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Sunset Boulevard."

Alan Campbell, George Hearn and Alice Ripley don't disappoint either.

  • Does anyone know why Alice isn't on the cast recording of this? She IS the original Betty...so why isn't she on the recording?

  • @tonyesque That's because the cast recording is of the Los Angeles cast. Judy Kuhn was the original U.S. Betty, but got pregnant before the show transferred from Los Angeles to Broadway and was replaced by Alice Ripley.

  • What exactly is being projected in this scene? I can't tell.

  • Norma's face back from her heyday. It's clearer in my Linda Balgord video.

  • When Alice Ripley screams "PLEEASE CAN YOU TELL ME WHATS HAPPENING" I about die, she is so incredible

  • Yes, I do. Wonderful piece of RUG propaganda, LOL!

  • off hand, i'm not sure. it might be listed in george perry's book 'sunset boulevard: from movie to musical'? do you have it?

  • Ah, yes, those long and tall stairs I've seen in the other productions; "rampsters." Oh, well, no huge lost.

    Christ, it was so awkward reading that article. So naive. The bragging about making the set "movable" and having the tour go on until 2000... In reality, the whole affair shut down in less than year. Such a shame, the tour had arguably the best cast (screw the "name" talent.)

    How high did the mansion lift in the "stationary" productions?

  • because of the nature of the touring mansion set being on scissor lifts, the rampster setpiece had to be modified. as illustrated in one of your videos, the only thing that could fit under the mansion set now was the narrow pool staircase setpiece and the middle section of artie's apartment. the rest was taken up by the scissor lift mechanisms underneath the mansion which in reality could only lift the mansion 7.5 feet off the floor. i'll send you a megaupload download link for the article.

  • Deleted? I thought the 1st US Tour utilized them as well!
