Posted: 7/30/06 at 8:29amShe'd be good. She has a lot more energy on the Tarzan CD than on the All Shook Up CD. On the All Shook Up CD, it's like listening to Betty Buckley.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 9:17amI thought the same thing about Jenn playing Julia Sullivan!

Posted: 7/30/06 at 10:38amHmm, she'd nail that qiurky part of the character.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 10:50amoh that would be sooo good. i can def. see her playing a role like that.
#6re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 11:03amShe'd be good, but if she's really as talented as people on here seem to think she is, I'd like to see her break out of that apparent comfort zone of cutesy roles with pop scores.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 11:14amI LOVED her in Tarzan. I love her in anything she does actually. I think she'd be an excellent choice for Julia Sullivan. I'd also think Megan McGinnis could do it.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 12:34pmThat's a great idea!

Posted: 7/30/06 at 12:38pmGuys. Laura's not leaving anytime soon. Stop.
#10re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 12:42pmIluvtheatertrash, it doesn't mean we're saying Laura is leaving, we're talking about a replacement LATER or hmm, possibly a tour? You don't have to be so defensive, no one said anything about Laura leaving.
#11re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 1:17pmThat's an amazing idea!

"Guys. Laura's not leaving anytime soon. Stop."
Whatyouown said this already but...
Gah! No one said anything about wanting Laura to leave. What's wrong with talking about a future replacement?
#13re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 2:13pmLaura never shows up, anyways *just a joke for Iluvtheatretrash, trying to make him mad* ,no seriously Laura is great and i don't think she needs to leave the show at all. As a matter of fact, Laura would be great as Jane in Tarzan, also, and it doesn't mean i want Jenn to leave her show. They are really great, it would be just fun for them to switch jobs for a week.

"Laura is great and i don't think she needs to leave the show at all"
But she will eventually which is why we're talking about Jenn as Julia.

I don't think the show will last long enough to have replacements...it should close with the OBC.
But yes, Jenn would be fabulous in the role!
#17re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:05pmI hope you're wrong and the show lasts for a long time. I am even willing to accept stunt casting. Hehe.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:14pmBroadway needs an upbeat show besides Hairspray.
#20re: Jenn Gambatese as Julia Sullivan in TWS
Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:16pmI think it's pretty fair to say that any Broadway actor currently originating roles is looking to continue to only originate. Replacing is, unfortunately but true, seen as a step backward for actors who are landing jobs originating roles. It's still a paycheck, but if you want media attention and to get noticed (which can lead to further jobs), that will happen in the original reviews of a production, with its original actors.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:18pmIt's not a great show. It is, however, the most fun show on Broadway besides Mamma Mia and Hairspray.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:22pmWeel, thats your opinion but i disagree. I really do think it is a great show and Julia is a great role that many should get to play eventually.

Tchi - I personally love it because it's so much fun. I am a devoted follower. Shakespeare, it ain't....but what is?
All of the lead roles are great parts. It just hasn't found an audience.

Posted: 7/30/06 at 3:34pmI agree with Yankee, except, I think it's on its way to find its audience.
