Perhaps the break has done us both some good. We're agreeing for the first time in our (combined) long histories on this board. I'm sorry but I cannot stress enough that that would have never happened.

I'm only making an appearance because Rathnait has decided to come back from long and refreshing absence to add her support to Snelson (surprise) but I don't believe for one second she's been doing the role on tour without a contract for this long. I say this as someone who's negotiated numerous contracts and that simply would not have happened. Sounds like spin to me. but hey, Rathnait loves her, so she'll be fine!

re: Will Legally Blonde even last until the reality show???? Feb 3
2008, 11:59:57 AM
Poor Rath, her whole life revolves around obsessing over and maligning someone who doesn't even know she's alive every single chance she gets. Ya know Rathy honey, the more you talk about her the more OrFAKE who overreacts in every scene and thankfully saves the fledgling show along with her equally fake husband, the more you raise her profile on the illustrious Broadwayworld. But you'd know that if you would take your head out of you ass for five minutes and think about something, anything else

Sorry Bobby but Legally Blonde ain't Sondheim so your repeated comparisons are ridicuous. It's not a deep classical piece, or any sort of drama good or bad. It's a splashy MUSICAL with an absolutely abyssmal book, so the only thing the lead and supporting cast of Blonde have to do, and do well, is SING and sell the songs, not recite text from The Seagull. Just sayin'.

Bobby, with all the bickering we've been doing lately about other topics, I'm literally shaking my head at your posts on this thread, especially the last one. I'm not going to threadjack so I'll pm you later. On topic, I'm not going to get in to Bundy's skill set but I will fault the writers. It would only benefit them if their song sounded great with or without their originally intended note. This one issue is not Bundy's fault and she should insists upon having it changed.

You got that right. And Borle could never pass as a teen. Morrison maybe but why cast Morrison when you've got Groff who I'm sure could play both sides effortlessly. Again, all pure speculation.

Does it matter that neither Borle nor Morrison (whom I enjoy) are both too "grown" to pass as teens, even on stage?

It's obvious Bobby has a great passion for Kate Shindle (he started this thread) and I can more than respect that but the dark turn it took at Orfeh's expense is ugly.

2007, 04:43:42 PM
Sorry Bobby my old friend but you are so wrong, it's comedic. If everyone on this thread is defending Shindle's acting by "blaming" it on the writing, Orfeh is a comic genius for being able to get the literal guffaws she garners from the crowd with the material that poor gal is stuck with. On another note, why go after Orfeh for no reason, this thread was not about her other than Rup "warning" SomeWick about how up in arms some posters get when other posters suggest certain actors shouldn't tak

And honestly, if it didn't do well there, there's not a chance it wouldn't be completely massacred here. I happen to know the pockets were deep enough but the pocket holders not daft enough.

Really Craig, you showed up on of all threads, THIS one to correct and chastise little ole me when you know darn well it's meant in jest and with a load of sarcasm? I'm so flattered!
Here, is this better:
Dear posters of Bww, I feel deeply that there was a grave injustice during the 2007 Tony award season when Orfeh lost the coveted, yet meaningless in terms of the rest of the world of entertainment, Tony award to sentimental favorite Mary Louis Wilson. In my most humb
