I have to agree with the Wicked fans...I knew the songs back and front by the time I went to the Pantages...So I stated crying out of sorrow during FOR GOOD, but when I saw the you know who come back as the you know who and get you know who from the you know where...I gasped and laughed and cried again...just like watcing STEEL MAGBOLIAS. Another time..was the Phantom Move at the end when he places the rose on the grave...I LOST IT!!!! Never mind, ON MY OWN (Les Miz), I'D GIVE

I have read this whole thread and it is hilarious...I am a former DREAMGIRLS cast member and know the show very well...so far the casting is on point..the only problem if any, would be Eddie Murphy as Thunder Early...it could work and be the comic relief. I would actually love to see Jennifer Hudson or even Frenchie Davis be Effie...the audition notices said Effie should be full-figured not obese. Funny. It also said that all 3 girls should be able to play from age 16 and up...AND lastly Fant

I live out in Los Angeles and ever since I heard ONCE UPON A TIME at Thanksgiving...I fell in love with it. I purchased the CD and was very moved by the story and music. Everyone did a fantastic job!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ADDING THE Audition rejects. Waaaaay back in da day 1988. ACL was my very first professional show. I was Butch. I understudied, Bobby, Gregg and Mark. It was with the American Theater Company Hawaii and us undestudies got paid just as much as the lead, which pissed them off when they found out...LOL! Aaaaaah, such memories! I wish y'all nothing but the best of luck. My director was the late Tommy Aguilar (original London/L.A. cast Paul), he was one of Michael Benn
