Billy Crystal would never star in a show called DAMN YANKEES.

Please, oh please let Loretta Swit play Lola. She was born to play that role!

I love the idea of Jennifer Lopez...but there's one problem ...SHE CANNOT SING!

You actually think J-Lo is a worse singer than Bebe Neuwirth or Gwen Verdon?
#81

re: Damn Yankees at Encores!

Your kidding! arent you?!

Gwen Verdon is not same level as Jennifer Lopez! Have you heard J. Lo sing live? if ever she did?!

My heat has just been fractured.


Some people paint, some people sew, I meddle.

^ It is happening.



Lola is truly phenomenal casting. She is a bigger name than Patti but she is not a Broadway name.

re: Damn Yankees at Encores!

I've heard some names...the names I've heard (with the exception of one other for Lola) have all been mentioned in the thread.

Not a fan of this show, how do you follow of GYPSY with Patti LuPone?!?!

Thank you, Ray, for the insight into the Jenna Elfman history. I wasn't privy to it... and now the [title of show] lyric makes more entertaining-sense.

And Jay, you come closer and closer to balancing on the brink of obscene/banned from BWW with these tantalizing shirtless hotties you keep blessing to us midnight posters.

Cool. Its reported on ATC that Anne Hathaway is in talks to play Lola. Although I think she is very talented, I don't think she is a good fit for this role.

Anne Hathaway? Really? I love her but I don't think she is a good fit for Lola either. I wouldn't buy her as a tempting devil-helper.
Jewishboy, someone PMed me saying that one of the ladies I'm a HUGE fan of was considered for Lola, my first thought was Ms.M of course, but you are right, Ms.K is a natural fit for the role. Can't believe that didn't even occur to me, and that may even be who this person was talking about. Or maybe even Hathaway, I do dream-cast her a lot too.

According to rumors, Ann Hathaway's performance as Agent 99 in the upcoming "Get Smart" movie will shatter what's left of her wholesome image. She's supposedly very seductive in it.

Hathaway lost her "wholesome" image when I saw her boobs in "Brokeback"

I would actually love to see her as Lola. Esp. with those legs.

She completely lost her wholesome image with the film Havoc, which was quite the little raunchy film. She does sing well and showcased some of her vocals in Ella Enchanted. She sings "Somebody to Love".

re: Damn Yankees at Encores!

Oh wow.

I completely forgot about that


aww I 'd love her as Lola! but isn't Lola specifically meant to be a blonde seductress?

re: Damn Yankees at Encores!

"a blonde seductress?"

not as played by ravishing redhead Gwen Verdon.
