Now that sums up general consensus toward the Guys and Dolls revival better than any NY Times review.

Any word if Jo is pleased with the whole sordid mess that is this new revival (IMHO)?

Aww, the poor lady. Haven't we all taken a bad picture before? Here is a bad picture someone once took of me.

I agree. The Chinese characters are unreadable.

According to a story on the Playbill site, she liked this production.

The Playbill quote is "I thought it was very good, and it made a thrilling evening."
IMO, if that is the nicest thing she has to say about the production, then it really must suck.

PG2, you are like a hydra. You keep growing more heads.

Mrs. Loesser is recovering from a stroke and has made great progress in her recovering. She is walking with a cane and had learned how to speak again. She truly is a treasure. She should write a book.

tom, I don't think that's common knowledge, and I am sure PG2 meant no harm.

It does look, you must admit, like someone going responding to a question such as, "What did you think of the show?". Or better yet, the scent of rotten eggs.
