How The Wedding Singer Can Be Fixed — Page 3

Why is this thread here? It was started back in February just when the show was closing in Seattle, and now the show has been open since late April. They're not going to make any changes. The only possibility would be when Laura Benanti leaves, they could fill it with someone that's a little different type (or maybe just promote Tina Maddigan).

It's not bad the way it is, but like BobbyBubby said, it could be so much more. I actually agree with everything you've said Bobby. Laura is great, but this music doesn't really suit her voice very well. After listening to the new song "Someday" - I just don't feel like she fits in with the rest of the cast. I also agree that the book is pretty bland. I remember laughing a lot, but I don't remember any kind of character development. I think the plot is too simplistic - even for a musical comedy. The lyrics are pretty bad in some points. The one that sticks out is in "POP" When Amy Spanger says something like "Cosmo's latest quiz ..... gets down on that knee of his" - the rhyme is so forced and it doesn't flow very well with the music.
