"...how will he do...ect??"

Hmmm, good question. I have no idea how he will do this considering the show closed a few months ago. Time travel, perhaps?

I love LSOH, but I didn't want to see it with Hunter Foster. I thought he was simply wrong for the part. I would have liked to see someone more like Rick Moranis. But when Fatone reviews came out, many of them said that he had what Hunter was missing so I went to see it. Actually, Fatone's performance was very interesting and unique. He was almost dangerously self-conscious and tense, someone with really paralyzing social anxiety. This wasn't always effective theatrically, but it was an intriguing interpretation. The show really wasn't too great the day I saw it. Rob Bartlett (whom I was REALLY looking forward to seeing) was out and it was a week before closing so it looked like they weren't too enthusiastic. But I get the feeling that he was better than Hunter.

Actually I was not going to SEE it because he was in it. I am not a fan of pop "celebs"ruining Broadway shows. But then I finally got pretty cheap tickets and went. I have to say he wasn't all that bad. I didn't like his acting too much,but it wasn'T terrible either. Yep, no Hunter...

Theres probably already a thread about this, but how's the tour of Little Shop? Its coming to Wharton in March or April, and if Im around to see it, I think I might. I love Anthony Rapp!:)

Joey Fatone actually wasn't too bad in Little Shop. My only complaint was his diction. I could barely understand a lot of what he was saying. I had ushered for the show enough times to know most of the dialogue, and still I couldn't figure out what he was saying. Updated On: 11/28/04 at 02:16 PM

I thought he was excellent as Seymour. Very funny, great voice. I was very impressed, and surprised how impressed I was.
