She is such a talent, she needs to come back to broadway soon, if ragtime weren't closing I think she be good as Christianne Noll's replacement, maybe take a crack as Donna in Mamma Mia with her daughter as Sophie, be a replacement Velma or Roxie in Chicago to stop the whole recylcing trend or originate a whole new role. Any thoughts, are there any other roles she would excel in???

I've always thought she would make a wonderful Diana in Next to Normal.

Wasn't she supposed to be going in to Mamma Mia? Wasn't that rumored?

I'd love to hear her sing, "Back to Before".

Wow, I never thought of her as Mother, but I'm playing it in my head now and it's amazing!

What excellent suggestions!

Especially Diana and Reno!

adamgreer, McCardle's deal fell through in the early stages of negotiations.

Beth Leavel has now extended her contract through September.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I remember Alexis, her daughter, auditioned for Mamma Mia... was the show interested in both of them?

I would definitely go see Next to Normal if she were in it.

If Andrea ever ever belted the D in "you say that you KNOW!" I would have to find a cigarette
