god he's so hot
if that's the devil then take me straight to HELL!
Any new news on who will be playing the witches? I've heard Skinner and Noll are interested, but have no idea how true that is.
The rumor a couple of months ago was that Emily Skinner, Alice Ripley, and Christiane Noll were slated to play the witches.
Anyone know if they're gonna bring it to Bway?
I have heard the cast recording, and despite what sounds like amazing performances, I really can't get into the music. Except "Another Night At Daryl's". That is a great song!
Yeah, based on the OCR this is a problematic show. It opened in the West End only six and a half years ago yet it sounds so old-fashioned and dated. The three leading ladies have some good moments but Daryl's songs are just okay at best. I can't imagine this ever having a Broadway production.
I've heard from a pretty reliable source that the witches will be Emily Skinner, Jacquelyn Piro and Christianne Noll.
I have a SERIOUS soft spot for this show and.. yeah ok this is more than a little exciting to me.
I wonder what kind of changes they're going to make - I'm assuming it'll be tinkered with before they give it a shot here...

He's only so-so in The Apple Tree. And yet, here he is again in another show.
Kudisch has one of the best (if not the best) baritones on Broadway right now. THAT'S why he keeps finding himself in show after show.

I hope this show has a decent future in the US. I'd buy the cast recording except I'm not big on buying things online and I never see this.
Well I am thrilled! I sort of had a feeling. The only person I would have seen better fit for the role might be Jeff McCarthy, but he is doing Pirate Queen. I can't wait. I have to get tickets. Ever since first hearing the OLC, I really fell in love and it is just one of those shows that really does it for me!

Again, I don't care much for him both singing and acting in the shows I've seen him in. Eh. To each his own.

"He's only so-so in The Apple Tree. And yet, here he is again in another show. "
Thanks for the comment; glad to know I'm not alone. I think he's great on record, yet every time I see him live, I'm disappointed. Yet, still making a cross-country pilgrimage to see Pirates of Penzance...we'll see if he's able to pull off a non-mic'ed perf.
Good to see such a talented (not to mention the fact he's extremely sexy--unfortunately straight) actor getting job after job in the theater world. Can't wait to see him on Sunday in The Apple Tree.
That extremely talented man is always getting job after job.Whenever he is doing a show he always has something lined up next. He definitely does have the best baritone I've ever heard.

I think it's the role in "The Apple Tree" that's so-so, not him. He never really had a chance to shine like James and Chenoweth did.

I'm excited to hear how this pans out. I think the role is a good fit for him, and he'll definitely bring a more legit vocal presence to the role than Ian McShane on the OLCR. Good as he was, he spoke-sung too much for my taste.
I agree that the score sounds "old-fashioned," but I think that's exactly what I like about it: a nice throwback to the golden age of Broadway.
There is some GREAT music for the ladies. Can't wait to hear who gets cast! I'm assuming Emily would play the Cher/Lucie Arnaz role?
