Saw the wednesday matinee this week and I had a marvelous time!The standouts for me were Brian D'Arcy James, Julia Lester and Phillipa Soo. I did love Sara Bareilles in the role, but I was sometimes distracted because her voice didn't always mesh with the rest of the cast. It has such a pop sound. But her comedic timing and acting were top notch!Patina Miller's Last Midnight was incredible, but I wish she had done more with the role. All around, a wonderful and fun production. I'm really glad...

«NPH just seems way overrated in this whole role. Actually, in general, NPH is way too over-hyped for the "talent" he has. I've only seen a few minutes here and there of Hedwig, so I'm not judging the show. I am just tired of all this praise for someone who doesn't really do much but play themselves.» Are you implying that NPH has a multiple personality disorder? Because I don't see how he can be Barney Stinson, Dr. Horrible and Hedwig (which are 3 very different roles) while playing himself.

Laura Osnes : Eliza in My Fair Lady, Sean Palmer : Don Lockwood in Singin' In The Rain Colin Donnell : Bobby in Company Sutton Foster : The Baker's wife in Into the Woods Kristin Chenoweth : the mother in Ragtime

I am very excited about a revival! My Fair Lady is one of my favorite broadway musicals and I've been waiting for a revival for some time now. I would love to see Colin Firth as Henry Higgins, but I don't know if he would be interested to do broadway. Laura Osnes would be a lovely Eliza Dootlittle. I think she looks and sounds the part.

I'm sure she would have made a perfect Annie Oakley with the right director and more support from the studio. Her They Say It's Wonderful with Howard Keel is simply beautiful. I would have loved to hear her sing Anything You Can Do.

I am personally happy that she's leaving. She's a very bad actress (though she was a bit better this season), mediocre singer and her character is so boring. She didn't have much going on for her apart from the dancing.

Oklahoma

I'm excited about it. I have enjoyed every show he has hosted so far and he made the Emmys more fun to watch for me.

I agree with Annie Get Your Gun, Oklahoma!, My Fair Lady, West Side Story, Follies and A Little Night Music. I would also add The Apple Tree. I love every song from that score and it's simple, funny and sweet at the same time. Never get tired of it.

-Bernadette Peters not nominated for Follies -Kristin Chenoweth not nominated for The Apple Tree -Aaron Tveit not nominated for Catch Me If You Can -Danny Burstein not winning for Follies -The Lion King winning over Ragtime for best musical

Catch Me If You Can and The Drowsy Chaperone

I'm a college student and I'm working in a library. Also, like Emma White, I'm living in Montreal.

EDIT : Just saw that it was for Broadway and not a movie remake... I like the idea of Firth, but not sure he would be able to do it 8 times a week. Hate the idea of Hathaway for Eliza. I have doubts about her being able to sing the material. Laura Osnes or Sierra Boggess would be perfect for this.

I think it's a beautiful version. The song choice makes absolutely no sense, but it's better than the crap top 40 songs Glee has been doing this season.

I really loved Don't Say Yes Until I Finished Talking. I wish they would make Christian Borle sing more in season 2.

Wynbish, I totally feel the same. I thought he was spectacular until Bring Him Home. That's the only moment where I was like «Dude, the song is too big for you». He was amazing in the rest of the movie though.

yeah... maybe that's just me. I do look to a lot of screencaps of tv shows/movies though so maybe I'm just used to it too much to see anything wrong with it.

Very glad for their GG wins! It was well deserved!! I was actually seeing the movie for the third time while they were winning their Golden Globes...

Don't really see what's wrong with her in that screencap... I think it's how anyone would look like if they were screencaped while talking...

I forgot The Apple Tree, Ragtime and The Drowsy Chaperone. Also, one of my favorite musical based on a movie : The Wedding Singer.
