Well this is sure to be a hot ticket. Marin Ireland will be phenomenal in this.

Sutton Ross said: "Maybe his giant ego couldn't handle not winning a Tony and talking for six minutes straight on stage about himself? After all, he blew off introducing Ragtime correctly and seemed like a real ass doing so."What a weird f**king take from you, as usual.

BCfitasafiddle said: "Please let this be Hecht's Tony. PLEASE."Assuming things are consistent with the last revival and she'll be considered in the Featured category, she'll have some stiff competition from Allison Janney.

"I assume you're right that Encores will cast it that way, but that's not what the poster I replied to said. They said Jasmine was "not latin enough" for a role (not for a specific production). And that's just silly considering Aurora is has been played by women of every imaginable background.

Schmigadoon posted as well. Both shows are managed by TT Partners, so guessing some intern accidentally let the cat out of the bag prematurely lol.

Normally I could take or leave the performers who they get, but this year Susan Egan and Ainsley Melham are performing, so I will be there with bells on. (I'm an Annual Passholder, and I echo the sentiments of not buying a park ticket just for this. But if you're already going and there are performers you are particularly fond of, it's a fun way to spend part of the evening at a really great EPCOT festival.)

I really feel like Cooper makes more sense as Olive and Rogers makes more sense as Rona, so I'll be very curious to see how they embody their actual roles.

"Camille A. Brown only choreographed Gypsy, so I hardly think she’s to blame for its relatively paint-by-numbers direction. I didn’t get the chance to see it, but by many accounts, her production of for colored girls… that she helmed in its transfer to Broadway was excellent. The reviews at the...

Jasmine strikes me as more of a Rona Lisa than an Olive, but either way I'm THRILLED to have her back on stage so soon.

ER765 said: "Except you’re a clown who has been popping into chats regularly overthe last few months only to tell everyone Nicole is overrated and that Audra or Jasmine were more deserving of the Tony win.We heard you the first sixteen times. The horse is dead, beloved."Those are hardly the only conversations I've taken part in during the last several months. I post quite regularly and have for nearly 20 years. Just because those are the only conversations you pay attention to, that's not my ...

Bwaygurl2 said: "To be fair, had Barbra Streisand only done Funny Girl, she would still be one of the greatest Broadway performers of all time. (As it stands, she's only done one other show besides FG)."To be fair, I don't know that I'd consider Barbra one of the greatest BROADWAY performers of all time. I'd consider he one of the greatest performers of all time, without the qualifier. I'd say she gave one of the singular great Broadway performances, but when I think of who the greatest Broad...

binau said: "I continue to laugh at her ‘haters’. Nicole literally proved she is one of the greatest Broadway performers of all time in this one role. She runs circles around most Broadway veterans with her talent and star presence. She beat Audra in Gypsy for gods sake. To me it seems embarrassingly petty and ridden in jealousyand mediocrity for someone to just dismiss her achievements or talent.She is a cross between Judy Garland and WhitneyHouston.."Time to put down the bottle, binau. Glad...

In this clip, it sounds like Patti is a half-step higher than Rachel's version, but on the OBCR, Patti is in the same key as Rachel is here. So either that Youtube clip of Patti is so warped that it sounds higher than it actually is, or Patti sung it a half-step higher live than she did on the recording.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMt8VTthPHI

FolliesCabaret said: "There definitely have been threads dedicated to one performer before. I just feel like there wouldn't be this response if this was about, like, Sutton Foster or someone. We live in a world where she has a Tony. Whatever she brings to Broadway next is going to be a big deal. Let the lil Nicole stannies have their fun."I guess I'm skeptical that there will BE a "whatever she brings to Broadway next"...
