Joey Fatone — Page 2

He's a nice guy...his talent's....not what i might look for in a broadway show....but personally he's pretty nice. He graduated from my high school a few years before me and he was always coming back to the drama program.

Liz Smith reported today that Kristin C is leaving WICKED this summer. Maybe Joey is going to play GLINDA ha ha

He is a wunnerful wunnferful man...a darlin' boy!

Wow. I can't believe he's coming back to Broadway. I saw him in RENT, and I thought he was ok, and he did a very good job playing a nerdy character.

I did read he wanted to be in a Disney show. I think he mentioned he wanted to be in Beauty and the Beast, but I could be wrong. But Joey as Radames? I just don't see it.

I agree...I didn't think that I was going to enjoy his take on Mark...but I really loved watching him! And he was very gracious after the show. Good for him!

argh. Again, I'll save you all my useless ranting on stunt-casting. I saw him in Rent... he was my first Mark, so I didn't really have anyone to compare him to. That said, I think vocally he is definitely able to handle Broadway, but he could use some acting lessons..... that part wasn't too impressive. The first time I saw Rent, I hated Mark because I felt like he had no personality. Joey made him a very boring character. The second time I saw the show after Joey left, I loved Mark. I think I saw Chad Richardson... but whoever I saw, Mark was played with much more depth.

And BwayDiva, since you mentioned it... Joey as Radames? I think I'd simply shrivel up and die. That would be heinous.

So when's Hunter leaving?

Good lord I hope they're kidding, I'm going in August purely to see Hunter and Kerry... hopefully Kerry will still be there at least
