Norbert won't be coming when I see the show in December, but I am pretty pleased with the rest of the cast, particularly Laura Marie Duncan...

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I am very happy to see Laura Marie Duncan get her shot, but very unhappy that Norbert will only be going out until October. I was really hoping to see him in Baltimore in November.

Very good casting...though I saw Norbert last night and realllly think he needs a short break for his voice. The guy can't even talk after a show. I am glad at least he will only be doing a short 2 month run.

Yay! I don't know if I'm going to see DRS, though. It's a matter of other shows coming to town. You see, I get one more show for this year and that's it. But seeing it here would give me an opportunity to meet Norbert! We'll see...

I'm so excited to see Tom Hewitt in something! I'm also sad that Norbert leaves the Tour a month before it hits here. It looks like his last show is in Atlanta which is too far away to drive from here.

Laura was in The Full Monty on Broadway and several other Off Broadway productions and readings. She's amazing! I'm so glad she's getting more recognition.

I'm a little bummed I won't see Butz in this role again in Boston, but am excited to see Tom Hewitt in it. I already saw him as Officer Lockstock in the Urinetown tour.

I'm almost relieved Norbert won't be coming to Baltimore, since I'm here in Orlando working at Disney World and wouldn't be able to come home to see the show. I would have cried if Norbert had been in my city and I thousands of miles away. I'm just upset that DRS isn't coming to Orlando. The best show we're getting anytime soon is Piazza...
