Posted: 2/14/06 at 6:37am

Found this "cast list" posted on ATC...don't know how true it is, but if it is true, then this is gonna be one hell of a production:

"Elaine Stritch
Barbara Cook
Chita Rivera
Angla Lansbury
Patricia Morrison (!)
Patrice Munsel (?)
Tyne Daly
Kitty Carlisle Hart (!!!)
Alice Playten (too young)
Linda Lavin
Michelle Lee
more to follow....."

Sounds way too good to be true.... Will wait for an "offical" announcement.

Alice Playten is my age give or take and definitiely not too young.

Where are the men?

If that cast list proves to be even half true, I'd be booking plane tickets at record speed.

it's going to be kaye ballard and sally ann howes with a few others. maybe julie wilson, but she isn't able to focus for long onstage -- and she is forgetful these days.
ps. i also heard doris roberts but that is unconfirmed.

Alice Playten is in her late 50's... she's a little younger than the rest of the group...

There was a rumor, that's the joke I was making. No, I didn't start it - Margo referenced something I said, which had NOTHING to do with SWEENEY and everything to do with LEADING LADIES in DC. Somehow, on ATC, it turned into Karen replacing Patti.

<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.
