On The Twentieth Century Previews — Page 10

"After Eight-you seem to delight is controversy."

Controversy? What controversy?

This production is not as good as the original, and that's that. There's nothing controversial about it.

Sweet Lips,

I'll offer you a bit of advice.

Don't butt in to other people's disputes if you don't know the history or the context.

I've been on the receiving end of this poster's insults for years now.

My response was the height of courtesy by comparison.

^Love that she mentions Schmackary's.

When she got hit by that scaffold thing in The Good Wife her head hit a curb which resulted in the cracked skull, I believe. Horrendous luck.

I've been on the receiving end of this poster's insults for years now.

No you haven't. Said poster has had one interaction with you in all these years and that was because you attacked him unprovoked.

So now at least we proof that you are paranoid, delusional, and/or suffering from dementia.

I'm sorry After Eight, I had no idea that this thread was for your 'personal dispute' between yourself and D2.
I would certainly not have 'butted in' had I known; maybe you need your own website?

Carry on.

Kristin Chenoweth just tweeted that Andy Karl has caught the same bug as Mr. Gallagher. She tweeted "the understudy are ready" Perhaps Andy's understudy is on tonight?

Watch out Cheno don't be next...the show needs you!
Too bad Victor Garber or Mark Kudisch were not available for Oscar...Imagine Marc Cheno's ex and the on stage drama would make the show even betta
Would luv to see Andy Karl switch roles and play Oscar now that would be fun chemistry!

---

^ agree with Douglas Sills and I used drama in the sense that the chemistry between Cheno & Marc would be great pairing on stage...better then Gallagher.
Yes, they no longer have past relationship issues!

One does wonder: in the depths of winter, when flu and colds are raging, wouldn't it have been wise(r) to anticipate just such an occurrence? Why were they so blindsided? Also, couldn't they posit that a 60-year-old-leading man who hasn't sung on Broadway in a decade or more -- not known for his singing -- might run into vocal problems in a role that taxed a better singer (John Cullumn)? Even if Gallagher has a bug, his voice might've just given out, as was first opined. I don't get the how-could-this-happen panic and lack of planning, as if a show previewing in the dead of the most illness-prone season suddenly can't fathom the possibility of star absence. And Mr. Gallagher, bless him, is not Mr. Jackman. People would gladly stay to see his understudy opposite Ms. Chenoweth (were there returns Sunday? The Gallagher Fan Club of White Plains?)

---

Okay, okay, he's 59; he'll be 60 in August: New York County.

I saw the first Carrie preview and have dined out on the since the late-'80s.

But I won't post this three times.

I'm seeing the show in a little over a week, and if Gallagher is out, then so be it. It's not going to ruin the experience for me. I'm really there to see Chenoweth, anyways.
