Through the eyes of Mickey Deans, Garland's husband at the time of her death, Downing strikes a stunning chord between the masculine and striking narration, and the exquisite feminine innocence of Judy's music. The crowd adored it, and not a few tears were shed in honour of some of the classics 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas', 'You Made Me Love You' and 'The Man That Got Away'.
