Addams on Sunday Morning

Just saw the segment on Bebe Neuwirth and The Addams Family on Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood. It was actually a very well done piece with lots of great footage of the show. She got really emotional when talking about Bob Fosse.

I dunno, just thought I'd mention that it was a nice segment that they put together. If it pops up somewhere on the interwebs, check it out.



(On a totally non-theater related topic- I'm really upset that the nature sequence at the end of the program isn't as long as it used to be.)

There is no video up yet, but the text from the interview is up. here is the segment on Fosse:

"How important was Fosse to you, to your life and to your career?" Mitchell asked.

"I can't quite express just how deeply everything is sort hinged on what he did, my seeing what he did when I was 13 and going 'Okay, that's me up on that stage. I know that. That's who I am.' I just found myself.

"And then to work with him, he kind of showed me who I am as an artist and as a performer. He saw me. You know, that's what we look for, I think, in life, are people who see us, that bring out the best you are."

Broadway clearly agreed, recognizing her with two Tony Awards for her performances in Fosse shows.

And while "The Addams Family Musical" hasn't exactly been a knockout with the critics, it has been selling out at the box office.

Neuwirth says she doesn't read reviews. Once again, thanks to Bob Fosse . . .

"He looked at me, and he said, 'Don't read the reviews. Don't read them. Don't read them.'"

Good advice? "You know, if Bob Fosse tells you something, don't question it." She laughed, "Just do it."
