There was already a thread about this somewhere, but ljay and I will both be there. I'm sure there will be others.

I can't believe we'll be their first public performance, as there was no invited dress.

Exciting.

Very excited about Angela Lansbury.

Not so much about Catherine Zeta-Jones. I hope she's out the day I see this show.

^ Apparently Catherine is brilliant. But why don't you just go on one of her 2 weeks off in the Spring?

There was no invited dress?? Strange...

I will be there tonight and I could not be more excited. Angela Lansbury is back on Broadway!!!

RobinM, I honestly feel the same way about Catherine Zeta-Jones.

I'm very excited to go tonight!

LOL, givesmevoice! I hated her with a passion in the movie Chicago. She acted like, "Aren't I the best singer and aren't I the most gorgeous and aren't I wonderful?" and all I could think the entire time was, "You cannot sing and you look like a drag queen (not that there's anything wrong with that)."

Ugh, I just don't want to sit in that audience and cringe as she pretends to be able to sing.

You clearly have very little understanding of Desiree and her music.

If people don't want to see Zeta-Jones, then do us all a favor and STAY HOME. Or go on one of her vacations. It's simple.

I actually think Zeta-Jones is a fairly decent singer, and an okay actress. She just doesn't come across the way I imagine Desiree, since I read her as being a little cold and smug. Unfortunately I can't plan on seeing the show because of finances, but I was intending to go see the show with her to see if I can be proven wrong.

Ever hear of someone having an opinion?

The actress playing Desiree doesn't need to be a fantastic singer. And who CARES if the actress isn't the strongest vocalist (in any show)...as long as they act the hell out of it.

And how could anyone have disliked CZJ's performance in the movie Chicago? Can't sing? Are we deaf?

I know it's just an opinion, but really?

[RobinM]

Posted: 11/24/09 at 12:52pm

No, we're not deaf.

I just thought she was awful. That's all.

I Assume the stage door will be bombarded with people who aren't even seeing the show tonight to get memorabilia signed. I hope its playbills only!!! But since its the 1st preview it wont be decided right now.

[MrMidwest]

She's a much better singer than most of the other actresses who've played Desiree.

I'm going tonight! :)

[Scripps2]

Posted: 11/24/09 at 1:11pm

Have they announced the cast yet?

I hope they don't bring over Hannah Waddingham - I think she's too young for the role.

Posted: 11/24/09 at 1:13pm

Yah! Summer 2009 go away!

[jrb_actor]

Posted: 11/24/09 at 2:05pm

Oh it's already been decided--CZJ and AL are only signing ALNM stuff. :)

And, let's please not review CZJ BEFORE actually seeing her, eh?

I edited the title of my other thread; this can become the official first preview topic (even though mine was posted before yours).
