If I remember correctly . during the time of her run the NY Post's page 6 had stories about her shenanigans all the time.  

@Jane  I would buy your book in a heartbeat.

Thanks Dame. and anyone else-I did start a book of my memoirs and then it turned into a whole biography. I got halfway finished and didn't feel like writing any more. (It's hard work!) I prefer putting all my energy into my photography and my baby Jezebel.

 

If I do eventually finish the book, I'll post about here first! Well, after I finish my photo book. oy.

Jane2 said: "wow thanks for that, Haterobics. So now how many times did I see Michael do that song? As many times as he did it, and every single time, I teared up. For me, Midnight Radio sums up the whole meaning of the story.

 

"

And originally, they wanted to close the show with "you light up my life" in German, but they didn't get the rights to it in time, so Stephen had to write Midnight Radio in a pinch.  It's such an amazing song, I can't imagine the show without it.

Add me to the list of people who would purchase Jane's book.

Jane2 - You write, "Also, I think Hamilton thinks I only follow Hedwig. I don't think he/she knows I house managed the Jane. And I am a GIRL."

If you're a girl, why does your profile state, Gender: Male.  Do you have something to hide?

Can't we just ignore the front of Jane2, and instead ponder why you aren't addressing why everything you accused Jane2 of doing in relation to this production was shown to be wrong?

haha, yes, I remember when I first created my account here, I wrote "male." I also wrote that I was listening to wheezing. The whole thing was me trying to be funny. Eleven years ago. What do you care if I wrote male. I'm definitely a cute girl!

Hamilton said :

 

"There really isn't that much dirt on Sheedy. Jane is exaggerating. The worst Sheedy did was miss performances, change the script and once she had Yitzhak sing one of her songs. That's about it. "

 

You really are out of line puiblicly spreading rumors. You should delete your post, post - haste!

To be fair, that's in the script.

Per Ally Sheedy:

http://observer.com/1999/10/stage-fright-ally-sheedy-misses-heaps-of-hedwig-shows/

"As of Oct. 13, after 35 preview performances, Ms. Sheedy had performed in only 17 of them, after pushing back her preview debut by a week." 

 

Yikes, that is quite a few. 

The article also states that Sandra Bernhard and Martha Plimpton were his first choices for a woman to play the role.  Now either of them could have been very interesting, especially Martha.

Heh, that was meant to be a Long Grift joke.

What Jane means, haterobics, is that it was originally sung by one of the other band members, I believe Skszp, and not Yitzhak. (Right, Jane?)

[Jane2]

^  oh, no, I know what you mean. At the Jane, Trask sang long grift. No, this was something entirely different and not in any script.

There is no misunderstanding aside from us not realizing we're all talking about separate things.

Can someone help me out, I don't want to read back 14 pages, are they planning something big on Sunday? My wife is there this weekend to see Taye tonight, and Alfie tomorrow.  By special, is there a possibility that some of the former leads show up and do different numbers?  It would be exciting.

If so, no one is talking about it.

If former Hedwigs were going to show up and sing, it would be at the Tits of Clay gig in Brooklyn that night... Stephen Trask is definitely going to sing a song with them.
