I sent her a myspace message about the rumour of her joining. She responded confirming.
--------------------------
Yes I will joing the touring company in a production of "Wicked" in June. The tour dates of the shows I will be appearing in are on my offical page (located on my top friends list) as well as more information on my Wet Paint site (PLEASE check that out, it is brand new and fan-created! I love it.).

Yours Truely,
Jackée

I actually think she will do great. I mean the producers know the show will do well w/ out her so she must of blown them away. She has studied Opera.

"I mean the producers know the show will do well w/ out her so she must of blown them away"

These are the same producers who cast Rue McClanahan in that role.

" She has studied Opera."

A background in opera is certainly not necessary for the role of Madame Morrible.

Not necessary but it doesn't hurt. I'm not sure about Rue I think that was a mistake. I don't think they'll make that mistake again.

WHAT!? Nooooo. Why don't they just recycle another Morrible who's done it 34924 times already?


Seriously, I actually think Jackee Harry will be great in the role. She always makes me laugh.

And hey, Miriam doesn't sing at all and I still think she's great.

Yes she is from Sister, Sister.

Ah, she was the best thing about the show. Too bad the tour isn't near here

Remember back before she had a last name?

Can somebody please post the tour dates she'll be performing so I don't have to go to Her site?

Thanks!

Oooooooookay.


Ew.

I honestly didn't even know her last name was Harry. She's just Jackee.


And she is hilarious.

Bahhahahaa. That is great.

Geez, Louise! You would think after all this time people would learn to include a photo of the person they're mentioning. Helps tremendously those who have NO idea who the person is, etc.

Here goes...

"... ladies and gentlemen -- Jackee Harry!"

Jackee is listed on My Space as being in the cast when it plays Buffalo in June, early July. I see it the end of June and will post a review then.
