If the only thing Oprah had done in her professional life was The Color Purple, that would be reason enough for me to want to see her on stage.

Agreed. And there's no point in arguing with lovebwy. He only exists to provoke. He's just the main board persona of the off-topic board socks.

do we really want to start telling people NOT to come to Broadway? I personally would not waste a nickel on her, but she does have a big following and any buzz for one show, is buzz for all

I never thought she was very good, and she's been very irresponsible allowing anti-science nonsense which all the bored housewives eat up like so much cottage cheese.

What does it mean "sock of the off-topic" whatever? I am one person with one account. Sorry if you don't like my opinions, but don't go accusing me of things you have no idea about, honey child.

"You don't have to sing to be on broadway. There are these things called plays."

I know that. :-p So, what plays would she be good in?

Dont worry about it Lovebwy. She is projecting her own issues on to you.

Oprah is also in the new Forrest Whitaker movie. I don't remember the name but it looks pretty good. Haven't seen much of her in the trailer though. I bet if she was just Oprah onstage people will praise her for her performance. Probably will end up in at least a Tony nomination.

What does her "anti-science nonsense" have to do with her acting?

Oprah's new movie is called "The Butler" and has nothing to do with Rhett. It sounds fantastic and I hope to see it this weekend when it opens in the DC area. I think Oprah plays the title character's wife.

As someone who's actually been part of a bid to bring Oprah to the legitimate stage, I can say she'd most likely be arriving in a drama.

The details of the show we offered her are subject to confidentiality, except to say that it's a modern update of an established piece (one of Ibsen's better-known plays), but she would be perfect for it.

gdeli, what is it exactly that you do that puts you into a position of offering Oprah an opportunity on the Great White Way...?

g.d.e.l.i.'s post was clearly self-serving only. He has nothing to offer other than to tell us "he's on the inside fast track, offering her something."

Well, bully for him.

Glib, indeed.

Since 2005, I've been lucky enough to be involved in a ton of Broadway-bound projects. Due to the nature of the business, especially in recent economic climates, they've tended to be of the "always a bridesmaid, never a bride" variety, but things are looking really good of late.
