I am a big Piper Laurie fan and it was great hearing her tell the stories about the eating flowers PR campaign and Carrie. Thanks for recording it for us. It was lots of fun.

It's nice to hear a producer talk about why he loves a show so much as to invest in it. I hope the critics and NYC theater goers are as passionate as he is about the show. I'm looking forward to seeing it in mid December.

Nice interview. I saw the show tonight and I agree that Blake was great. Angela really was terrific. The show is still powerful and the score is beautiful. I hope Todd will get a chance to go on at The KC.

After attacking Alice with all your ugly venom, why don't you do something decent-just congratulate her on winning the Tony tonight. She was entitled to say anything she wanted to after winning. And, when you all win your Tonys, you can say anything you want. Meanwhile, show respect to the actress who the Tony voters named Best Actress in a Musical. I'd like to see all you go on that stage and do better. Kvetch! Kvetch! Kvetch! It's ugly and it's getting old. As Sondheim wrote, Move on!

What a fantastic interview. I loved Marc in 9 to 5, although I didn't love the show. He is such an a talented guy and very funny here in this interview. Great job!

Last time I looked, DC area theatres have been employing lots of NYC actors in their shows. In fact, two productions that were at Arena Stage-Next To Normal and 33 Variations-and are in NYC now -employed many NYC actors. Also, Kathleen Chalfaant is a NYC based actress who has done most of her work in the Big Apple,
and has a lot of fans here.
I am grateful that this interview was posted, because I didn't realize that Kathleen was in the Arena Stage production. Kathleen is one of

I loved this interview! I agree blaxx. That was an interesting answer. I also loved Karen's performance, and I think she has a great chance of winning a Tony. I saw the show when they had the subtitles and I found them to be distracting. Thanks for doing this interview Joel.

Did you read some of the comments that followed this "non-review"? They are not pretty. The good thing is there is a healthy discussion here, and hopefully the producers are paying attention to our thread and these comments. There's time to make more changes and I will definitely see it again when it opens in NYC where I live.
My favorite is:
Matt Cavenaugh (Tony) and Cody Green (Riff) are awful. I literally cringed every time they opened their mouths. Karen Olivo (Anita) is stupen

I was there tonight. I came in from NYC I have three cousins who live in the area and they bought me a ticket for my birthday. Was anyone else there? Interested in hearing your feedback. I thought Karen was ouitstanding-full of fire and passion. She stole the show from everyone else. Some great dancing, but the singing was, to be nice, quite subpar. The acting was quite uneven also. The Jets and the Sharks were hardly menacing. I don't think anyone of them would be accepted into any gang. My 5 y

Anyone see Les Miz at Signature Theatre?

I'd like to hear what you thought about this very dark production of Les Miz at Signature Theatre in Arlington, VA. I took my family there on Saturday at was not impressed. First the good news, Tracy Olivera as Fantine, Felicia Curry as Eponine and Chris Sizemore as Enjolras were fabulous. However, the two leads Greg Stone and Tom Zemon just didn't have the chemistry, and their singing was hardly inspiring. Mr. Stone rarely showed any passion as Jean Valjean, and he spoke some of his lines inste
