Arianda would be a flawless Olive Neal, though I hope it wouldn't stray too close to Billie Dawn for her.

Nina Arianda will not be playing Olive.

"Patti and Donna together in a show? That's.... a lot."

Patti + Donna + on the same stage = absolutely combustible

They are both divas, for sure, but different kinds of divas, so it'll be fun to watch.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.....Patti AUDITIONED???

They do have a special connection

I really appreciate that Patti still auditions for shows that she's interested in! Granted, with something like this, and Woody Allen involved in the project, of course they're auditioning. The combinations of rumors have me wondering if Donna Murphy was cast, though both women auditioned.

I thought in one of those Broadway.com things a few years ago she said that she "Doesn't audition" when someone asked her for tips. I guess she really wanted this part..

Two of the three leads in "To Wong Fu, Thanks For Everything, Julie Jordan."

Show is called War Paint. By grey gardens team. Friend is in a reading of it now. Based on famous makeup designers in 50s who were huge rivals....one stole the other's husband etc.

That person asked what her audition song was. I doubt if she's seen for a show she has to sing them 12 or 16 bars of something.

Sound very cool ... but I have to ask, how many shows are those Grey Gardens guys working on right now?

My my count, it's nineteen.

Wow...if that's true, it sounds exciting!

I was also thinking BABY JANE!

But why would Donna put herself thru the hell of working with the Pone?

[Reginald Tresilian]

For the Tony nom that often follows working with LuPone?

Thanks for that-can't wait to read this--just ordered a copy from my local library.

I'm guessing Patti would be playing Rubenstein and Murphy would be Arden?
