Shelley is 57, the variety show where she performs as a lead dancer is about to be dropped from production, and the future is unclear. Her adult daughter has never forgiven her mother for her lack of attention, and her seemingly enamoured colleague is silent about his feelings. But what are Shelley’s own feelings?

Anderson is a revelation, bringing the same balance of buoyancy and pathos that Judy Holliday brought to each of her roles.
