I don't know why everyone is constantly complaining about Alice's role being small. She loves the show, and she loves the role. Like, calm down and let her do the work she loves. As long as she's happy, I'm fine. And she is.
I bet Alice Ripley is the highest paid ensemble member on Broadway. She's probably getting paid more than half of the leads in the show. Maybe even the lead.

^ likely not as much as Benjamin Walker who's a movie star, but other wise year.

You haven't heard of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter?

It's so insane it worked IMO.
I've heard of it, but have never seen it or cared about it.
he may have starred in the film, technically making him a movie star, but it was a terrible movie.
I also would like Marissa to return to broadway. Someone mentioned Falsettos, i think she could play Dr. Charlotte.
Does anyone know if Marissa and the rest will be performing at the matinee or the night show??
Benjamin Walker is not a "movie star." He has played the lead in movies (all flops) but he's not a "movie star." There's a difference.
Thank you for being the voice of reason, WickedRocks. The idea that Walker is a movie star is ridiculous. He has a film career, that's different.

I asked her on Facebook and she said the evening :)
I'm glad she's returning to the stage. She's certainly been missed. I know that she's a very specific type and talent and therefore musical roles she could play are few and far between. But I wonder if there are any straight plays that she could do or could have done throughout the years.
Can someone post a link (or copy & paste) where she says she is coming back to Broadway (besides for the Disaster appearance)…cause I'm not seeing it.
Am I going crazy? Where does it say that she's coming back to Broadway? What are you people talking about?
Marissa posted about her appearance at Disaster on Facebook and someone she is friends with asked her when they'd be seeing her back on Broadway in a show, to which she replied with "Sooner then I can say".
Hello Dolly with Bette!

Ah thanks for that. See it now. I think she'd be great as Mrs. Gloop!
Charlotte in Falsettos seems like as good a guess as any to me.
She actually would be a hoot in Hello Dolly as Ernestina Money.

The Hairspray performace is on Disasters Facebook page. It was fun.
Has there been any more on this?
Ok....now that it's over I can release info: SHE was going to take over for Audra.
There was a picture posted recently of Marissa posing with Andrew Rannells, so those who said Falsettos are correct, I suppose.
^They're both on Girls this season.
