Donna Murphy to Return to Broadway in THE PEOPLE IN THE PICTURE

Wait. So we have another new musical???

Woah. I've not heard a single thing about this! And opening cold? BRAVE.

WHat is the one score that won't be original??

Glorious. I can't wait to see Donna back on the stage.

Wow, this is so incredibly excited! I cannot wait to see Murphy in a new musical, the first time she'll be singing a brand new score on Broadway since her Tony-winning turn in PASSION! Doesn't get any more exciting than that, hopefully this is better than the hot mess called WOMEN ON THE VERGE.

Ljay, haven't seen it but have heard it, admittedly not best way to judge a show but as a huge fan of the film and the stars involved, I'm quite disappointed with what they came up, the raw material was there for something quite special and it didn't sound to me that's what they ended up with. Mediocre and meh were the first words that came to mind, but perhaps it's all about the live experience...though I can't imagine that score being any better live (Tony award for Laura Benanti though!)

I think this role sounds incredibly interesting for Donna Murphy, the story sounds pretty fascinating. Does anyone have any idea what the word is from the workshop? From what I understand she has been involved for quite some time.
