If my show were on the edge I’d pray (invite) Tay Swift to attend and get a quote. I think she’s in the area, don’t know if she attends Broadway.

Harmony's next for Julie...As for Lea, Chess?

In the illustration, who is the other Fanny in the back?

Duh, Beanie

I know there are people that liked her in the role, but I wasn't one of them, and, FWIW, I loved her inDolly.Putting our personal opinions aside, though, this is show business, an industry that Beanie knows well. She underperformed at the box office, and was replaced for it. The producers did what they had to do to keep the production afloat. Was it unceremonious and messy? Sure, but desperate times called for despe


I saw her Sunday -- it was a surprisingly muted performance all around...

Barbra must have been strong as a horse. (Hope she spills “everything” in her bio.)

FWIW, CBS ran a commercial last night for the broadcast.

Just grasping at straws here.  A telethon benefitting ______, hosted by theatre -friendly Hollywood types….Streep, Blanchett, Springsteen, Taylor Swift doing a number on tour?

Perfect, but which Broadway diva would never allow a construction "seam" to bisect their face??

You're not, but in the movie, at least, Nick sends Fanny yellow flowers a couple of times. <shrug>

I’m so excited for the inevitable reports on Twitter and elsewhere tomorrow night, being careful to avoid those who still have a bone to pick with Michele.

When she was announced, I think I was the first on this forum to predict she’d be a smash! :)

Understudies have been interacting with fans like this for years now. This entire situation has been blown up into this ridiculous soap opera."

That’s true about Eve.  When she received the Sarah Siddons award, with the audience in awe of her, wasn’t she starring in Lloyd’s new productio
