For those people who think this show has been around long enough, I would only say that I saw it in St. Louis and thought it was the funniest show I've ever seen, and I liked the movie though mostly because of Roger Bart and Gary Beach. I still think it's funny. As for shows who were on Broadway too long, I can only say one word: CATS. I never wanted to see this show and I don't understand why people loved watching actors pretending to be singing dancing cats. "Memory" is the only song I like...

Everybody on this board knows I like Gary Beach as Roger and I'm sure he'll make a great Thenadier. I wonder if he's glad to know he won't be wearing a dress this time. :)

Speaking strictly from an audience perspective,I think it would be interesting to see a perfomer I think has a great voice act in a play,just to see them in a different light.

With the price of gas,I'm surprised anyone in NY drives anywhere.

Roger Bart

It's MY birthday!

"Let's start at the very beginning,a very good place to start"... Also, " I wanna be a producer with a hit show on Broadway"

Just when I think these stories couldn't get funnier,they do. They don't make em like her anymore.

Gary Beach, for all of those reasons. Also Nathan Lane for timing and delivery.

I heard this on Biography. She had the Duke and Duchess of Windsor over for dinner and lots of famous people were invited and after dinner everyone got up to dance except for the Duke and Duchess. Merman walked over to him and said " Hey,Duke! Get off your ass and dance with your wife. He did.

This isn't an acting story,but I guess it counts. In high school,I was on the stage crew when we did Once Upon a Mattress. So the time comes for the curtain cue and I signaled my friend to lower the curtain and she did but the curtain stopped coming down about halfway because the hinges were rusty,and still are I think. So the director ran over and yelled at me and I said I DID cue her! The curtain is STUCK!. Funny now,but I get really irritated when people yell at me.

No,Jon. That's not exactly what I meant,but nice try anyway. :)

Hugh Jackman is gorgeous first of all and I know this is off topic,but does anyone else think Norbert Butz is kind of a goofy name? He's probably a really good actor though.

Money is the reason I'm not coming to New York anytime soon,for those who were wondering. If I had Paris Hilton money,I go in a second! Also I have seen The Producers and Phantom (twice) in St. Louis. I go there for my cultural experiences. haha

Since I live in the Midwest,I won't get to come to NY to see Gary Beach in Les Mis.( sob!)I'd like to know from people who have taken pictures with him or talked with him after a show what he is really like.
