Roseanne did do that Wizard of OZ tour for a while, so she obviously isn't opposed to the idea of theatre. And, I think you're right "random person", she is probably a better singer than she was in the anthem debacle.
I just saw this clip of Sarah Silverman with Seth Rudetsky that made me push her towards the top of my list as possibilities.

Annie officially takes the Palace

I feel like chiming in. Considerring the timing of the announcement (if it is in fact soon), I am guessing it's someone whose involvement was pending the announcement of the next TV season, which just completed last week. Some possible Hannigan's I can think of that had TV shows in the mix for next Fall that are now free (and some other ideas) are as follows:
Kristin Chenoweth (not my choice, but I could see it happening)
Roseanne (pending her Presidential candidacy, of course)

I didn't know Norbert was ever a part of it, but actually thought about how perfect he'd be for it a few times during the show. Hunter is very good though.

It's fantastic and I am sure it will have a future outside of La Jolla.

Word is that it was an aerialist, so I am guessing it is not Reeve, but a sort of "stunt" performer.

RENT at Hollywood Bowl (REVIEWS)
Aug 10
2010, 05:26:22 PM
I think there would have definitely been some major changes. I just can't see a production meeting where someone wouldn't say "So, Jon, about that ending? Can't we just kill Mimi?" I mean, Roger has his closure with the song, she apologizes about Benny, and she is REALLY sick. I have always imagined that even when she lives, she would die in the next scene if there was one! It's not like she is suddenly AIDS free!!! LOL. I don't know. I just think he would have seen it for the clunker it is befo

Wanda Sykes to play Miss Hannigan?
Aug 10
2010, 05:18:56 PM
@Almira I'm kind of obsessed with the idea of Wanda Sykes being blackmailed in to playing Miss Hanigan in Annie! Haha.
Bookie: "Wanda, you'd better make good on your bet or ypu'll be playing Hannigan in Pennsylvania."
Sykes: "Well, I guess I'm playing Hanigan."
Bookie: "Why I oughta!"
Joking aside, I have a feeling shes gonna be brilliant and wouldn't be surprised if she is now considered for the BWay company.

RENT at Hollywood Bowl (REVIEWS)

First of all, thanks for taking the time to read my blog, those who did.
@Dame - The reference to "sold out" came from the conversations I had with the PR lady from LA Phil who provided us 2 pairs of tickets to give away at Musical Mondays in LA. Outside of that, I did not check my facts, so I apologize. I did, however, say that there were over 50,000 people there, not that there were over 52,000 people there, which would be the capacity.
As far as the "would Larson have let
