Thoughts?

How about I meant, IF it happens. That's why I said I "think". Calm down.

I think it's perfect. About time she played it. She's in the great canon of Sondheim leading ladies, and I think she'll be fantastic.

Loving this is not a choice, it's who I am.

So much happiness.
I'm a little bit in love with this casting.
I have dreamed she would play this role.

(Those aren't characters she played, but shows she was in.)

I heard Sherie Rene Scott.


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Rumor has it that she's only going to do Act 1!

Donna Murphy is a star.

Am I the only person who finds Donna Murphy hopelessly mannered?

Wonder if she'll play it like she did in "Tangled."


Salve, Regina, Mater misericordiae
Vita, dulcedo, et spes nostra
Salve, Salve Regina
Ad te clamamus exsules filii Eva
Ad te suspiramus, gementes et flentes
O clemens O pia

Yeah, would kind of seem like a no-brainer after TANGLED.

No, you said "I think this is a great, great casting decision!" when should have said, "I think this would be a great casting decision."

What was mannered about Murphy's "Could I Leave You?" or "I Read"?


Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

I would LOVE if this happened. Donna would make a fantastic witch! This would get me back to the East Coast in a heartbeat!

This is kick-ass casting right here! Hoping this is true and waiting for the OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION. Will be disappointed if it falls through,

Divine...

Not for nothing, had he lived, Divine would've been a great choice for this part. (You may fire when ready.)

Let's do the math.

An amazingly talented actress.

A world class singer with a voice perfectly suited for this part.

Among the finest interpreters of Sondheim.

Who can pull off the comedy in her sleep.

Who can scare the &*() out of an audience with the best of them.

Who can doubtless transform from crone to exquisite.

Impeccable casting.

OF COURSE SOME ARE GOING TO COMPLAIN IF SHE GETS THIS ROLE!
