BETTE DAVIS in Miss Moffat

By 1974, Bette Davis had spent forty years winning fights, collecting enemies, and becoming Bette Davis. Then she decided to do a musical. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. This week, we tell the story of Miss Moffat, the legendary out-of-town disaster that finally met its match in an equally legendary star. At its heart, this isn't a story about a flop. It's about what happens when Broadway and Bette Davis both expect to be the boss.
