This is fun news, but I feel bad for the understudy who was to take over...

My bad... it's just for a month. How great!!

Nice.

Perhaps she's edging to do the film...
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Hooray for Marissa!! I'm glad she can keep herself busy while Stacked isn't airing. Hence the reason it's only for a month--Stacked starts filming again in late July-August. yay!

"Damn my dwindling bank account"

I couldn't have put it better myself.

Although the article did make me feel better about watching Beautiful Girl about 6 times; if it was highly rated, I couldn't have been the only one, right?

Namo, whoever plays Tracy has always gotten the final bow, right after Wilbur & Edna. The rest of the cast then joins her onstage for the full company bow & encore and "Everybody...Let's Dance!"...

Anyway know if Stacked has been picked up for the fall season? If it's still up in the air (which I am guessing it is, cuz they probably want to see how the ratings are over the Summer), and if it gets cancelled, you can bet she will extend her stay at the 'Spray...

I guess that newly implemented front-row lottery isn't lookin too bad now, is it folks?

why is she coming back, i mean i think its really cool, but why cant the understudy just take over. do you think they want to raise ratings and viewer numbers? it just seems weird that shannon isnt going straight in. but yay for marissa. just saw her as a cameo in American Beauty

Yeah, now maybe I might have a change to see her......

Question: Is it Marissa's face that is in all the Hairspray posters??????

BTW, that dress she has on could put her in one of the worst dressed list!!!!!!

OMG! Does anyone know when exactly in mid-July she will be leaving? I will be in the city on the weekend of July 15 and that sounds like mid-July to me. I'd love to see her!

Yes, the face on the Hairspray posters, programs, etc. is Marissa.

And I think that dress actually did get her on someone's worst-dressed list.
