Well drink to that!
Meryl Streep got back to her theatrical roots virtually, anyway alongside pals Christine Baranski and Audra McDonald to perform The Ladies Who Lunch as it has never been performed before.
The trio gathered via Zoom on Sunday night to croon the classic ballad, which was introduced in the 1970 Broadway musical Company. The number was part of Take Me to the World: A Sondheim 90th Birthday Celebration , a livestreamed tribute to composer Stephen Sondheim.
To many viewers, however, it also perfectly captured life in self-isolation. Not only did Baranski, McDonald and Streep sip wine and cocktails with humorous abandon, they did so in their bathrobes and in the comfort of their own homes on a Sunday night, no less.
Streep, meanwhile, delivered the performances most iconic moment when she prepared to refill her martini glass with scotch, but opted instead to chug straight from the bottle.
For many fans, it was the ultimate mood.
