Can someone write the immensely talented John Treacy Egan a good role?

Great ensemble, though.

Egan's probably understudying Bill Irwin; Natalie Hill's understudying Gina Gershon.

Seriously, yes! He was the best part of the Little Mermaid for me.

I adore John Treacy Egan-- and he had me laughing until I almost cried in Little Mermaid, which I did not think was possible. Maybe he'll play Ed Sullivan or something?

Ouch! For a second there I thought the Colleen Fitzpatrick cast was Vitamin C (aka Colleen Fitzpatrick), mostly known for having played Amber in John Waters' original 1988 film HAIRSPRAY. Nope... its the Broadway dancer/actress Colleen Fitzpatrick who is in this revival of BYE BYE BIRDIE.

Whoopsie.

I assume he's the Mayor, or maybe "Maude", the bartender.

When I first saw "Egan" my first thought was "Susan" whom I saw as Kim in the 90's tour. I was all confused because last I hear she's pregnant. Then I, actually, read the article
