Wow, why has this thread been so dead the last couple of days? Come on you guys!
yea it has been. ive been trying to say stuff but no one else does really, ha ha. yea, someone deff needs to report on how kevin is as robbie cause im deff curious! (i doubt he'll be as good as stephen but thats because stephen is, well, stephen, ha ha) but i hope he brings his own "twist" to the character. make him a little different.
(i doubt he'll be as good as stephen but thats because stephen is, well, stephen, ha ha)

ha ha, i just think that if i compared the 2 i would like stephen better, but i dont know, lol. id have to see it to know. im sure that kevin will be GREAT!! i actually would love to see him but i cant
kevin is adorable...i could imagine him being really good as robbie. stephen is my favorite thing ever since way back and he will probably always remain my favorite robbie, but i really am interested in seeing kevin.

Anyone planning to go to the matinee on Saturday, August 19th? It looks like my whole family might be going...me, my parents, my older brother and his fiancee, possibly his fiancee's mom!
But yeah, I'll (hopefully) be there and really want to stage door it.
I'll be at the matinee on the 19th!

I saw the matinee today. It has allot of appeal. Tina is perfect in this role. I love every minute of what she does. Incredible performance indeed! Stephen was out and his understudy was also superb. The show will probably last untill December in my opinion. However, maybe Tina could be the replacement. She really could get people to see the show with the tittle TINA MADDIGAN FROM MAMMA MIA JOINS THE CAST or something like that. In other words, she also has allot of appeal. Its a show with high energy that works as a night out for friends and couples. To me, its good as what it is. The next night I have a night out with friends, this is where we will go.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Is Stephen on vacation or sick? Sorry if this was already mentioned, I'm away and it's hard for me to go online.
Stephen needed to take a couple of personal days for whatever reason, so this was pre-planned.
And also, JS, Lynch's understudy's name is Kevin Kern! I'm really glad you enjoyed him so much! Any details about just how "superb" he is?

Kevin gave a real performance that was not to overdone but not underdone. It was just right. Although he is not a big name, he will get the respect he deserves over the next couple of days playing thins role. His take on the role was just right. His connection with Tina was priceless. They really worked well together. She gave the best performance I have seen in a while. She is allot of charm and innocence, which is what the role requires much of. Her voice was really in perfect shape. I hope she can stay with the show and eventually replace Laura (only if she leaves). Kevin, in other words, was great from start to finish like Tina. However, Tina and Kevin were more appealing than the actual production, sorry to say.

Good to hear such a good review! :) I dont know.. I am totally and completely biased toward the Lynch/Benanti love, but I bet tina and kevin would be adorable together too! I mean, they're both SUPER cute, so how could they NOT be adorable together? lol. But yeah... I actually kinda want to see like a full day of understudies- kevin, tina, cara, nicolette, and the understudies for matt and kevin too (I forget who they are). That would be cool to see, not that it would ever happen or anything haha but it'd be cool if it did. But I obviously NEED to see the full actual cast at least one time before seeing all the understudies. Sigh.. I want Laura to come backkkk cause next week when I go it'll prob be tina again, and although tina was adorable, I really REEALLY need to see laura
Eee! That review of Kevin made me real happy. LOL I'm such a loser for that guy, seriously.
and the understudies for matt and kevin too (I forget who they are).
Matt's understudy is David Josefsberg and Kevin's understudy is Eric LaJuan Summers. :) And you're right, a full day of understudies will never happen because they don't have enough swings to fill in! LOL I mean, Kevin (Kern) is the main male swing - he's not even normally in the ensemble! So have him on as Robbie and you're a swing short as it is.

hahaha, okay, so yeah, that ain't gonna happen, but I say it'd still be cool if somehow it could :P
I agree. I would LOVE to see an understudy day at Wedding Singer. Lots of ensemble and understudy love coming from me! .... Way out here in Nebraska. LOL
I want to see the wedding singer soooooooooooooooooooooo bad but. Now I live in Seattle. Do you know if the tour is coming to seattle?
Haha, it might! You didn't catch it in it's pre-Broadway run there?
I just moved here.
Oooooh. I didn't know. I'm sorry you missed it then! Or maybe not? I heard it was real, real bad in it's pre-Broadway run. LOL
I did live in Ga, when The Color Purple previewed there. I am so mad that I did'nt go and see it.
