She was up for the role of Elphaba in Wicked.
The producers went with a unknown at the last minute according to her...
She does have a compilation cd coming out very soon at her website deborah-gibson.com only, 20 song set with unreleased material all the way back to 1982 according to her.
Still doing the west coast thing... She's single again too if ANY straight guys are on here, though she said once she does like dating gay ones...lol
Later,
Chris

I worked with her in CABARET and I have to stick up for her and say that she was a very srong and consistant Sally. And she couldn't have been easier to work with. She works extremely hard and is always looking for ways to improve each performance...AND she BAKED muffins for the cast on Sundays! She's good people in my book!

Yeah personally I'm glad she didn't get the part, would be nice to see that side of her sometime though and I'm sure she won't give up on that part, she's said she still will pursue it...
I would like to see her originate a role and go ahead and get that damn Tony for all these critics... :)
She and her nonexistant lisp were nominated for Englands equivalent the Olivier, for her role as Sandy on London West End... :)
Later,
Chris

I saw her way back when she was Beauty in Beauty and the Beast. In my opinion she was pretty good!

I had the ...privilege?...of seeing Ms. Gibson play Sally Bowles and meeting her afterwards. Let's leave it as: she was far more endearing (and easier on the ear) when she was off stage...

*runs like hell, away from the Cabaret subject*

Did anyone attend Broadway Bares 13 "Burlesque is Back"? REALLY fun show, and I specifically remember her performing a new song (it might have even been the last number, but my memory is very poor). I'm trying to remember what the song was, but I don't have my program handy. Anyone know?

damoroso - I also had the . . . privlige . . . of seeing her in 'Cabaret' and I agree with you 1000%.
