You know I'm with you, overthemoon! Can anyone tell me how big the part of "Eddie" is?

Squeal for Charlotte Rae. Before her television career, she was in the original Off Broadway cast of Threepenny Opera and released an extraordinary album that needs to be put on CD called "Songs I Taught My Mother."

Best treasure on it: Charlotte's rendition of Sheldon Harnick's "Backer's Audition."

Would you believe that I have her "Ballad of Dependency" on my iPod?

Eddie is the hotel bellhop. He sings one song - "Go Visit Your Grandmother" - a duet with one of the old ladies. He's the only "youngster" in the show.

Thanks, Jon. I tried searching for a character breakdown and couldn't find one. Looks like it's gonna be a fun show.
