You know, as much I as I think her husband is a dumbkopf that shouldn't be representing the country, you have to hand it to Laura Bush for coming to see Broadway shows. I read that she took Jenna and Barbara to see Gypsy a few months ago.

Do you think the Bush women will go and see RENT now?

-SuperSchubert

p.s. is that Eden Espinosa in the photo? was that Eddie Korbich as the Wizard? Also, where are Jenna and Barbara?

Heh, I heard that when Laura Bush and family went to see "The Producers" Nathan Lane said some really funny negative comments about our dear commander in chief.

Publicity and support for Broadway theatre from the President's wife is a good thing (...as Martha Stewart used to say back in her glory days).

omg you so did not just say that. 'Thats not Idina! Who is that green thing! ' Eden is not 'that green thing'! She is a phenominal performer who has talent and deserves to be treated better. I suggest you listen to clips on her unofficial website before you call her 'that green thing'.

HOLY SH*T!!!!!!!! Ponnie I owe you a million. I had no idea those clips were out there!! She is so much better!!! The ad libs she does on Wizard and Gravity are so cooler! How long will she be in the show?? I have to see her do it. I'm not joking about this you guys. I just saw a light. She' holds higher notes longer than Idianal too. Thatnks so much!!

OY...possums

"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

i noticed the same thing. he probably just took them off. after having the wigs on for like 2 and a half hours it gets really hot.

he actually doesn't wear the moustache, wig, or glasses and his hat is more of the Jefferson Davis barber shop quartet hat, not the same as joel's moustache and top hat. Updated On: 7/13/04 at 05:17 PM

ummmm. why didn't the cast take a group photo with my mom and I when we went to see the show? That doesn't seem quite fair now does it?

ok, i have to say i just listened to those clips of eden, and while i am a self-proclaimed idina fan, eden sounds AMAZING! Wow, she certainly has some power. I'm actually quite shocked right now..... still feeling jealous about the lack of the photo op though
