I think Amanda will be great as Penny. I mean, judging by her speaking voice, I think she can pull it off.
And AWWW. James sounds so great - I'm looking forward to seeing him most.

Slight threadjack, but:
"Hey Winnie Holzman created My So-Called Life and birthed Jordan Catalano unto the world, she can totally write all the cheesy sitcoms she wants. :)"
AMEN.

AHH. I totally agree with Terrence Mann as Jafar!
Heh. I've been >told< I'd make a killer Jasmine- I wish I still lived in Cali so I could audition for the California Adventures production.

"iRuvPrinceton: Have you actually read the novel? In the context, those lines are beautiful."
Ooh, yes, I have read the novel (and loved it), and I understand why the lyrics are there, but when I listen to the song, it just irks me. No other explanation.

Well, er, regardless- >if< it should, by any chance, come to Broadway: Marla Schaffel, anyone? (Don't know of someone mentioned her already) I think she's played Evita before.

Oh, I'm a big fan of cheese. I know this is based on text from the novel, but I find:
"You are my life, my second self; oh, be my wife, my little elf"
from JANE EYRE quite hysterical and cheesy.

My dad and I have been toying around the the idea of THE MATRIX: THE MUSICAL. Hahahaha. We've already got some of the songs planned.
Okay, not really.

I love Lea. So much. She's been my idol ever since I was very little and I'm so glad I'll have the opportunity to see her soon!
When we lived in the Philippines, my dad said that some people used to comment on her -lack- of accent, actually.

Forgive me for my cheese but it was the moment YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN began. I was eight years old and I was in love. For most of my life, I had read Peanuts comics religiously and seeing those characters on stage, really, was awesome.
:P Again, I say, sorry for the cheese!

Who Do You Think Were Robbed Tonys? Mar 11
2007, 07:16:52 PM
Might not be my place to say this, since I haven't seen either actresses in these shows, but, I thought Marla Schaffel should have won the Tony for Jane Eyre, rather than Christine Ebersole in 42nd Street. (I do love me some Christine, don't get me wrong.)

Broadway's Biggest Scandal! Mar 8

"Audrey must be sleeping with the camera person. I don't think I've seen one without her."
LMAO, especially at that picture. Oh, dear me.
I had something more intelligent to say, but I lack sleep and the 'word' "encaptured" really got me.

re: Les Miz- School Edition Jun 6
2006, 08:44:03 AM
As someone who was in the school edition production (as Cosette) and a huge fan of Les Mis, I can say for sure that the show is great to perform and is good for younger students as a first show. (That may sound weird, but there were many ten year olds who joined the theatre group for that show.)
And, the only things we changed for Mme. Thenardier's lines were:
"lifelong twist"
and "everybody raise a beer" "raise it up the master's rear" =)
