is the show doing that bad that they are resorting to guest star appearances?

mind you, it's just a question. a simple yes or no will suffice. please keep your flames on low.

Unfortunately yes marquise
look at the numbers on Playbill.com
But everyone should see this show and Mr. Van Dyke's appearance seems more like an event than guest casting.
It is only 3 shows.

Marquise, I thought the same thing. First adding back America, now guest appearances. Personally, I don't think anything can save this show.

i swore i would not see this show again, but i am definitely going to be at one of those performances!

I'm glad I waited. Now I get to see "America" and a television icon. Sounds good to me. (Even if it does raise eyebrows of being a 'stunt', it's a smart move).

Hey, I say whatever it takes to keep people employed and a legend working (even if the show really doesn't). It's no different than a show with a different 'guest star' ("The Play What I Wrote" comes to mind)

As long as the "stunts" make sense. Van Dyke and Chita together again sounds great.

Weird he is performing at the tues-thurs performances!

[DottieD'Luscia]

Posted: 1/12/06 at 4:38pm

probably because they need to fill seats during the week.

Yeah that is true. It's just weird he's not doing a full week then.

Maybe he will extend if there's a huge response!

I know people are sick of hearing about Wicked but if they end up doing the movie version wouldn't he make a great wizard.

He'd make a great wizard on Broadway if he's up to 8 shows a week.

Two legends for the price of one? I shan't miss out on the opportunity of a lifetime!

Ah nothing like legends on broadway.

do you guys know if there will still be student rush & standing room? (maybe no SR since it relies on availability...)
