This is pretty interesting.

Would rather the $$$ was put in a NIGHT MUSIC filming..she does seem to like Bernadette!

But does she only film Lonny's concerts? (I guess cause he was in Merrily he was too young to direct the 85 Follies concert). It would make more sense to film one of the upcoming FOLLIES productions.

Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

A new COMPANY concert seems kind of random.

It's finally a way to get Patti LuPone a chance to play Joanne.

Not that I'd ever object, but it does seem kind of random. Last April was the 40th anniversary. I guess it doesn't really have to be apropros of anything! Very curious to see who plays Bobby.

Now that we know she can do patter because of Women on the Verge, I'd KILL to see Laura Benanti as Amy.

And Steven Pasquale as Paul!!! It would be kind of cool if they filled it up with real-life Broadway couples, like Laura and Steven, Marin Mazzie and Jason Danieley, Sebastian Arcelus and Stephanie J. Block.

I love that! I'd like Marin and Jason as Sarah and Harry (Jason's "Sorry-Grateful" would be gorgeous). Audra and Will Swenson as Jenny and David? It'd be hilarious to see Audra really let loose in the smoking scene, and she would, of course, sound BEAUTIFUL on Jenny's parts in "Not Getting Married" and "Poor Baby."

My sources are saying Dan Fogler has signed on as Bobby.

The idea of real couples is interesting,
add Danny and Rebecca in the mix.
And I believe Neil Patrick Harris is ready to give us a perfect Bobby.

A friend of mine suggested Norbert Leo Butz for Bobby, which sounds like a pretty good idea to me.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain. -Kad

Andy Karl would be a nice change. Although I'd rather see him in the full show (yes, I know it was just revived) than a concert. I think he's more talented than a lot of people think he is and is ready to step into a leading man role.
