Becky performed "So Much Better" in Providence, RI today at a press event to announce that the tour will kick off at PPAC in September. Heard from my dad (a reporter for a local radio station) that she was excellent, even at 10:30 in the morning!

Probably stated before, and since I figure the people of this thread would know, when is Laura Bell's expected last performance?

well since i was totally wrong, I will say that Nicolette is probobly a little closer to Ali Larter's portrayal in the movie. Not to say Nikki isn't amazing she just played the character much nicer

Caught the show on Sat 3/29. Everyone was in...although during intermission the announcement was made that "Due to injury, the role of the district attorney will be played by Lindsay Nicole Chambers."
Your fupa is showing.

FOUR weeks worth of Brooke u/s? Wow that's a long time.
Totally in the minority I guess- Nicolette Hart was my fav Maureen, although part of that might have been because Merle Dandridge was such a great Joanne, and yes I have seen less Maureens than most I am sure- but I'm excited to see her Brooke.

I also really enjoyed Nicolettes' Maureen. I haven't seen many Maureens either, but thought Nicolette was great.

who is this Rockwell woman?

I'm going to miss Nikki. =( It's gonna be sad for me to see each of my favorite people leave.
Wow, I didn't think Haven was leaving so soon! When is her last day? I'm pretty sure she is doing Shrek. The main characters have been announced, I wonder when they're gonna announce Gingy! hehe

I'm so excited to see her there. AHH.
The producers of the new show "Shrek the Musical" have announced the casting of three major roles in the production, which will have its world premiere at Seattle's 5th Avenue Theatre Aug. 14-Sept. 21, and move on to a Broadway run that opens in December.
She has to leave by then I guess?

Rehearsals for SHREK begin at the end of June (which is why Brian d'Arcy James, Sutton Foster, and Chester Gregory will all be in shows until around that time.)
Haven Burton, who will indeed be playing Gingy, leaves LEGALLY BLONDE around May as that marks the end of her initial six month contract.
More casting should be officially announced soon.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

It seems most of you do the student ticket lotto, but does anyone have any idea of what prices are like for LB at the TKTS booth? Thanks!

I don't think they'd know understudies before they do the start up theater or whatever, we'll find out soon enough...
#668
Posted: 4/3/08 at 6:06pm
Are you talking about knowing if an understudy is on? If so because of the gap between Nikki and Nicolete they needed to fill the time so the understudies were given specific dates they will go on.

Posted: 4/3/08 at 6:10pm
I was referring to knowing if Haven will understudy a lead part in Shrek,
I kind of figured that they had to fill the Nikki Nicolette void- unless they wanted to use one of the boys which they have not been afraid to do for other parts! haha

fyi re: the Brooke u/s situation, apparently the next four weeks are starting off with two weeks of Kitty!Brooke. From her website:
Michelle will be playing Brooke Wyndam from April 9th-April 20th in LEGALLY BLONDE.
Guessing that means Beth!Brooke starting the week of 4/23?
OT/ and ps: hi to all the kids currently out there on the rush line for Nikki's last- one more hour to go!

lol I think the question might be is there anyone *not* going to Nikki's last tonight- I think all the Blonders I know will be there. I was there last night, I'll be there tonight- I am super sad for Nikki's last, but at the same time I am really looking forward to ACL hardcore.
