you New Yorkers dish Shoshanna so much i guess she is a turkey.
I have seen a little bit of her talents...and she looks a bit suspect.
Oh well at least she is schlepping 8 performances a week and convinciong the tourists. But then god can convince anyone

Shelley Duvall is "LA Joan" to me and nothing else....from "Nashville" of course. Not to mention "3 Women" and "Popeye", she was not a great producer. But i ADORE her.
And she is a brilliant actress

i like "boy meets girl"
I think Sunset Blvd is underrated.
I am not a Lloyd Webber fan......except for JCS.
Sunset in my opinion is his second best show

IT IS ALL ABOUT FINACIAL GAIN.
but then we all like money because we can buy pretty things.
Like a third mortgage and renovations to the house. And some Prada shoes.

Never seen "Latter day"s but I did read the book "Under The Banner Of Heaven" by Jon Krakauer....that was an eye opener.
I just have no sympathy for weak characters like Joe

Urban? what is your story?
Morman..and yet have images from "Carrie The Musical" on your profile. Do you get the religious fundamentalism criticism that the novel and film and musical project. I don't get you Mormans. They hate gays for a start

Joe was the most tragic character and he deserved everything he got, he was weak, and self absorbed...perhaps that is the mormon thing. I think Kushner intended to drop his story as he was tragic and an asshole...and a Morman. I think Harper Pitt was the true heroine and the most realistic character in the play.

re: London/Broadway recordings

wow didnt know there was a London "City Of Angels" who was in it?
Agree London "Taboo" far superior than Broadway.
I am undecided about London/Broadway "Into The Woods", leaning towards London cos of Imelda Staunton.
Broadway "Sunset Blvd" better than London, mostly cos of Judy Kuhn....same goes for "Chess".
"Les Miz", best version is the Aust cast.
As is "Nine" and "Chicago".
I like the London revival version of "She Loves Me" over the Broadway.
Saw Ruthie Henshall

If it is true....finally the song will be sung properly. How awesome would it be, wow. Please have it recorded for cd......powers that be. It is the only song from the show that I like, and to have an actress/singer emote it rather than belt it would be fabulous.

I think Toni Collette would be a perfect Mrs. Lovett.
Can Emma Thompson sing?
I hate the thought of Russell Crowe, although he would look right I think.
I saw Russell in a production or Rocky Horror and he was also in Blood Brothers, he is not a bad singer, but I just don't like him.
Hugh Jackman wouldn't be menacing enough.

How do people get away with videoing a whole show.
I saw an illegal video of "The Boy From Oz", do they pay off the ushers?
It was filmed by a gay male because the footage wobbles excitedly when Hugh takes his shirt off, it was hilarious.

Some of your list is wrong as they are based on plays and not books ie. Shakespeare
