Chita was great, but I wish the video said who all those other people were--singing on stage (like the Mamas?!) and waving to the camera on the red carpet.
And did you notice how it said something about "Gale Harold" in type on the screen? Was he Billy Flynn?! (If not, he should have been!)
But GO CHITAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

WOW! Another AWESOME, AMAHZING, SPECTACULAR video from BWW/Beat!! THANK YOU, CRAIG!!
Those Mamas were AMAZING! I'd be good to 'em ANY DAY!
And CHITA! Holy sh*t!
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 11/15/06 at 10:32amChita seemed okay, I would have loved to catch the initial excitement of the elevator though, thats only something I can dream of.

Why do people lose their ability to dress themselves when they perform on Broadway? I am especially fugging Bebe Neuworth and Emme--for shame!!!
On a less shallow note, the performances were great

I have a question.
How much blood does Bebe drink before she goes back to her crypt?
Get some color, girl!!

No Ben Vereen wasn't in the show, I'm not sure why.
A Little Bit of Good was performed by D. Sabella, R. Bean and R. Lowe...it was fabulous. D. Sabella did We Both Reached for the Gun, and R. Bean was the Mary Sunshine in the final "reveal" scene.

Posted: 11/15/06 at 11:45amThank you Craig! And I would be eternally grateful if somewhere in your coverage you could help with the whole rundown, with who exactly sang what.
