Posted: 9/14/04 at 7:58pmEvery single review of NEVER GONNA DANCE said that Karen Ziemba's talent was under-utilized and she deserved more to do.

Posted: 9/15/04 at 11:16pmNever seen the show but Im wondering how is Kristin misused? Im not a huge fan of the show, but I think her role can still the show! It's an amazing character role with a nice vocal range, what more could somone want?
re: Mis-used Talent#14
Posted: 9/15/04 at 11:19pmI just don't think the material is up to par with Kristin. Strictly my opinion, however.

Daniel Davis in The Frogs. (A lovely singing voice, in a musical, and he doesn't sing a note).
(Yeah La Cage!)
A click for life.

Posted: 9/16/04 at 12:06amI think you need to SEE and HEAR all of Little Women before you say that Sutton is misusing anything!

not necessarily mis-used but under used - Jen barnhart
and underused - the entire chorus of beauty and the beast - but hey - at least it's broadway!!

Posted: 9/16/04 at 12:45amNorbert Leo Butz in Wicked. Which is also why I really don't want people to consider Adam Pascal for the part - it's really beneath both of them. (I only know Chris Fitzgerald from Wicked, and his voice and acting seems too good to only warrant, like, one song to sing!)

I second the Sean McCourtness.
Also, Stephanie Block in TBFO defffffinately.
And IDINA!!! SHE NEEDS TO BE THE WHOLE SHOW! WHO NEEDS AN ENSEMBLE OR OTHER ACTORS??! WICKED NEEDS TO BE RE-NAMED "IDINA" AND IT SHOULD JUST BE HER FOR TWO AND A HALF HOURS! IDINA IDINA IDINA!!!!!!

I've already named my first, second and third children Idina. (The runty fourth one is named Boq.) And I've got it on good authority that Idina (the first-est...i.e. The Greatest Singer Ever) is going to take over after Brook Shields leaves WT, and then star in the revival of Boy From Oz as Peter Allen. Because she can do anything!!!!!!!
