Where the Weisslers are involved, the question is "Why not?" Need I mention Melanie Griffith?
Let's face it, their stunt-casting (and running expenses of about $1.98 per week) has kept this revival going for much much longer than anyone had ever thought it would.

Posted: 7/11/06 at 4:58pmI thought she was beyond brilliant in TRICK but Roxie Hart, she ain't!

Posted: 7/11/06 at 5:00pmyou know I hate to admit this but I would be there in a heartbeat...I think she would be a great Roxie and would be a nice fit...are there a million other people better than her? yes of course but it's the Weisslers so it's not even worth considering

Posted: 7/11/06 at 5:37pmOh my god! What has the world come to. Rumor or not, it would suck with her in it.

I would get myself a ticket to NYC so fast, my bank account wouldn't have time to realize it had been overdrawn.

Well, when you stop to think about it, the character of Roxie is a woman who doesn't let a lack of talent stop her from trying to get into show business.
And Tori Spelling...
As Yente, the matchmaker, says in "Fiddler", "It's a perfect match!"
Though, I love her show "NoTORIous". It's a camp hoot!

This show just needs to call it quits.
- Please you need to call it quits with your comments. Sorry, I'm a defensive fan. Seriously, Chicago was the only show that had a big increase in grosses for this past week. It's going strong still. I don't see you saying RENT needs to call it quits. Which is obviously on its last leg, from what most are saying about the cast and production in general.
Who cares if the Weisslers want to stunt cast now and then?
I'll believe this when it happens, regarding Tori.

I think Tori would be AWESOME as Roxie!

Why? It's a great musical. Why shouldn't it run as long as other long-running shows? I hate negativity!!
