DEATH BECOMES HER - Replacement Cast?
 Sep 6 2025, 01:17:08 PM

I don't think Laura Benanti saying that, means it's the end all be all for all actresses Remember Laura Benanti also has a previous neck injury from her stint in into the woods.

I don't think one needs to be a futurist or a debbie downer to imagine how unlikely it is that Menzel or Chenowith would opt to be replacements in DBH. Stranger things have hap


Nicole Scherzinger - Sunset Film Update
 Aug 10 2025, 10:16:35 AM

I agree I would not want Nicole in a film....if they cant have Glenn Close because of her age(even though i think she still would bring it)   they could do what they did in Cabaret film amd what they are doing in Kiss of Spiderwoman film., and leave the musical numbers to Norma or when anyone is in the mansion.

regardless of the subject matter,  Kristin does bring a nuance to the character that brings it for me in the same vein of Gypsy,  Sweeney Todd..characters that you shouldnt cheer for but see their point of view.  Her songs alone are to me worth the time and the price.  on top of that F. Murray Abraham to not only see him on stage but to have him sing as well it is a joy.  is this show going to be for everyone? probably not, do you have to be familiar with the doc

so seeing Madame Giry finally gets a solo of Learn To Be Lonely makes me very happy, and now I wish they would give the Phantom the cut song No One Would Listen from the film(which is just learn to be lonely with different lyrics) so basically would act as reprise and give more insight to his character as well.

this just adds to my list of, no matter what, someone, somewhere will be offended for the most as(s)inine thing ever.   I truly dont think of Josh Gad " plus size" pioneer  just truly see him as a comic character actor same type of role same type of delivery, who knows he may have given a different range if he didnt catch covid. John Stamos will bring in people as wel and he will do beyond fine.  


OPRAH SLAMMED FOR FACETIMING GAYLE KING’S BROADWAY DEBUT — “DISRESPECTFUL AND OBNOXIOUS,” FUME THEATERGOERS
 Jul 25 2025, 07:04:08 PM

ok so for something like this cameo was publicized, I doubt a. the person facetiming her to see was the only person to do it, but they also had permission to so thats a moot point...but also when Ellen went on as a nurse in Promises Promises or I think it was Hoda went on for a brief cameo in Aladdin, not only did they filmed the moment and aired it, but, the audience went  crazy over the cameo, and for sure people also were snapping pictures or videos of the moment a


Stage adaptation of Jerry Herman’s MRS. SANTA CLAUS to premiere at Goodspeed in 2025!
 Jul 22 2025, 10:29:51 PM

well...dang.  here is to hoping  the stage show comes through and if so sooner than later.

 

Goodspeed's official reason is due to scheduling conflicts  (did they have someone in mind that the Jerry Herman Estate agreed to, and without that person they couldn't bring it forward?)

When and how did the production emphasize her blackness? Other than her being a black woman I have no idea how they emphasized it.

Blow Gabriel said: "I completely agree, I hate all the commentary complaining about people’s ages, either too old or too young. It’s theater. Jessie Mueller (42) to Donna Murphy (66) can and should play the role of Rose right now."

missing my point of Montego reading too young... COMPARED to the actors playing the roles of Herbie, And Louise particularly at this moment...   Joy Woods looks more like her sister than her daughter....

Oh I get that for sure, Karen Mason would do great in this too, as would Louise Pitre since she too does Regional shows as well.    I was dream casti

highly doubtful, just more so done by graphic design, drawing on a computer.

anyone familiar with NYC skyline over the years does this seem like it could be around 1910(when the film took place) or does it look later like 1930s?

Why would it be highly doubtful? They wouldn’t be the first regional theater
