Well that was predictable.

I enjoyed her in Wonderful Town. A pity that she can't make it to Broadway originating a role.

I hope this doesn't follow her Wonderful Town, and Grease stunts and give us a new recording.

I don't think I like this idea very much.

Good for her for wanting to continue to do theatre. I actually think she'll be good! Let's be honest, the role doesn't require much.

Why fashion guru? I mean, just don't buy it and it's like it doesn't even exist.

one rumor down, now is Bebe going to join the tour also??

I'll definitely be seeing her!

Does it really matter though? I mean, it wouldn't be the worst, because most of the cast is changed, so its different from the other two?

I thought NOTHING would make me want to return to this mess of a show, but they just sold another ticket. I'll definitely be seeing her!

Did I miss that Leap of Faith isn't going to happen?

This is the only thing that could make me want to see this show. Love her.

I wouldn't imagine that BeBe was joining the tour. It's supposed to be a very bare-bones tour anyhow.

^ Pun intended?

Highly doubt they would do it but if they DID record her for this and it got us a recording of Rachel Potter as Wednesday, I would be okay with that for sure.

I'd still like fashion guru to explain how his life was damaged by the existence of those two Brooke Shields cast recordings.

I think it's great news - especially if it keeps her out of "Leap of Faith". This role doesn't require much, "Leap of Faith" did, which is why she was by far the weakest link in the show. Since I would never see "The Addams Family" again, I think its the perfect show for her.

Cool. She'll be good. They needed some kind of name. I'd love for there to be a new cast recording! That would be awesome.

JoeKv99, did I ever say my life was "damaged?" No. I'm just saying I think it would be a waste of money to rerecord the show with her.

I don't understand why she gets recordings, while other great replacements in other shows get nothing.

[KirbyCat]

Yeah, really... what's the point of another (extremely expensive) cast recording? They've already created a gorgeously produced album with a stellar cast.

The only replacement that would warrant a new cast album would be someone like Liza or Patti. So yeah. It'll never happen. (But could you imagine Liza as Morticia? Eep.)

On a different note- I wouldn't object if they actually decided to record Clandango for real this time.

Is it coming out of your pocket or something? Who cares?
