I think she'd be a great fit...but I realize she's doing AF.
I truly am not one of these folks who starts a thread just to make rumors fly...really...I was killing time at jury duty at the DA's office in NYC. I had just purchased the PARADE cast recording tha morning on iTUNES and thought she is about the right age etc. Seems like i get in hot water with PGenre every time i post from my phone! Y'all run a tight ship around here!
QUESTION MARK IN YOUR THREAD TITLE, PLEASE!
And there is no word yet if Carolee's role has been cut down significantly or completely from TAF - I'd say, if so she's gonna bounce. She'd be great in N2N but Sarah Uriarte Berry would be even more interesting.

This.
Ugh... should have known this was an unintentionally misleading thread title.
She'd be great!
So would Orfeh, actually...
Seriously? I love Orfeh, but I can't really see her as Diana.
Sally Struthers should do it.
If she's too busy, how about Margot Kidder?
I think Andrea McArdle would be good. Dont like Carmello in the part.
Doesn't matter who anyone likes. Alice will be with the show until it closes. And beyond.
Julia Murney would be perfect, as evidenced below.

Actually, I think Jordan's right. When I last saw the show Alice said something like, "How can I top this part? I'm riding this train to the end" when I paid her a compliment. She may intend to stay the whole run. Ya never know. She is perfection in the role. Almost seems tailor made for her.
That would be a whole bunch of drama, CATS. And I would love it.
I actually would sort of like to see SJB in the role too. I think she'd be sort of interesting in the role.
Sorry, but SJB would be terrible. She's the queen of overacting.
I do think Julia Murney's acting would be incredible.
By the way is it just me or can we not edit our posts anymore?
I don't think Alice is going ANYWHERE.
EDIT: I just edited this to find out if we can....yup.
Orfeh is the ONLY person who should ever star in N2N.
All others are poseurs!
She truly understands the character I think.

I agree with Taz. Also, I think the role would speak to her fans, specifically those called Kelly2.
Wasn't kelly2 the one who posted the picture of Orfeh's driver's license a different birthdate?
What a hater!

Please see my edited original post above.
I also realize that Alice may be the one an only Diana we ever see other than Jessica and Sarah (if she goes on)...but I love the show and hope that the interest remains high, because it works for many reasons other than Alice's performance. I remember seeing Kiss of the Spider woman with Vanessa after Chita left the show and being blown away. Heck didn't she even get her own recording?There was no BWW back then, but how many of you all would have predicted that the show would die when Chita left?
I agree completely Gator. I'd love to see her do the role. =)
Bring Susan Egan back from the dead and give her an "edgy" role like this to revive her Broadway career.
