Amy Adams will get her Tony if Woods transfers — Page 2

"Girls who wear panties don't get awards."

But Jordan, Katie Finneran wears panties.

Here's what Amy said about the possibility of the show coming to Broadway and if she would do it, "I’d definitely consider it,” says Adams, who is featured this week in EW’s Best of Summer issue. “I just try to take it one day at a time. I literally have to take it hour-by-hour right now, I’m so busy. But yeah, I would definitely consider it. That would be amazing.”

This would be her Broadway debut. But she has come close before to performing on the Great White Way before. “I auditioned a lot for Broadway before I started working in film,” she says. “I actually got very close to being Julia Guglia in The Wedding Singer on Broadway. And the same summer I was cast in Enchanted. [The Wedding Singer] went to Laura Benanti, and I was so excited because I have a lot of respect for people who make [theater] their living.”

I'm afraid that Tony belongs to Katie Finneran now

I agree that it is a tricky role. I saw four women to play it during the original Broadway run — all of the actresses to play it except Lauren Mitchell — and I saw Mary Gordon Murray and Judy McLane on tour. I also saw Mary Gordon Murray on Broadway.

They all brought interesting qualities to it, and I probably liked Kay McClelland and Judy McLane as much as Gleason. Murray was also quite good. Cynthia Sikes was the least effective but even she was OK. But no one got the laughs that Gleason got and no one made getting those laughs appear so effortless. And, as mentioned, everyone can watch her do it in the video. Although I think that the video doesn't quite capture how good she was.
