Esparza in Night Music? — Page 3

I've been seeing Kevin Spacey since he was in the Liv Ullmann production of Ghosts. I've never liked him -- Long Day's Journey, Lost in Yonkers, Iceman Cometh, Moon for the Misbegotten. I feel that Moon was spoiled forever by the great revival in '74 with Robards and Dewhurst -- one of the greatest evenings EVER. The only one who came within light years of Robards was Gabriel Byrne in the otherwise not-very-good revival of Moon -- and he threw the play out of balance because the others simply weren't in the same league. I shudder at the idea of Spacey in a musical of any kind.

Peter Gallagher.

^ In what show?

I'd second the vote for Peter Gallagher. He's a known singer -- Guys and Dolls, A Doll's Life, Annie Get Your Gun, Pal Joey -- and a fine actor. I know I've been yakking about Raul, whom I also would like to see in the role, but Peter would be fine in my book, too.
