She trailed the singer from Washington, D.C., to New York City, where she shared her hotel suite, and then back to the West Coast to visit the star on home ground in her Malibu beach house. "Rock stars don't know what the sun looks like," says Vallely, who would stay up with Linda until dawn, going to clubs and rock concerts or simply rapping in the hotel room, and would then catch a few hours sleep before stumbling to her typewriter the next day to file her story.

But this kind of staginess can also be distracting: an imposingly literal set of cherry trees all but overruns a house in Act I; a little girl bearing cherry blossoms self-consciously tiptoes into the old servant Firs' death scene. The high, deep stage-space forces the cast to play...
