Well she can't be worse than Patti LuPone!
I remember Linda Lavin as a smart-talkin' waitress at Mel's Diner.

It's so perfect I can't believe no one thought of her before.

I'm not a fan (well, not anymore) but I'd actually like to see her in the role.

I wouldn't mind it. Bring her in for a short engagement; extend her if she does well. I've been surprised by too many actors and actresses in roles that they could definitely not do, would be horrible in, would never be able to perform even remotely well, etc. I'm not going to write her off. She's also not going to play it, let's get real.
I'm not sure she'd be amazing in the role but frankly she certainly can't be any worse then Elena Roger. Because ... I mean oh god. I think it'd be interesting to see. But she won't be doing it. She's touring the UK with JCS right now.
Props to her for representin' with the most "Broadway" album from a pop star in a while.

She sang "Come What May" with Alfie Boe at the Royal Festival Theatre last December -- and was, to put it mildly, not good.
It's not that bad..it was kind of an off kilter duet from the beginning. It's such an ethereal song, and they go all night at the opera with it.
