Posted: 2/26/09 at 10:46pmI love Child Ensemble Member! I think she might get a Tony nom for this!

Posted: 2/26/09 at 10:49pmThis show looks so f*cking stupid. These aren't production stills either, they are promotional stills.

Whoops. That's what I meant to put. ;P
And don't shoot the messenger. This isn't MY show.

Posted: 2/26/09 at 11:01pmI just threw up in my mouth a little.

Posted: 2/26/09 at 11:11pmOH MY MOTHER F*CKING GOD!!! I've lost all respect for Diana.

Posted: 2/26/09 at 11:11pmthese remind me of the press shots for that recent Sci-Fi channel show that was a modern spin-off on Oz....anyone else know what I'm talking about? I forget the name....

Thank Heaven that we have Encores doing it right with The Wiz!
This looks like a Bad joke, and I am a HUGE Diana D fan.

That clip was quite possibly the funniest thing of seen in a.... while. And not intentionally.
Oh Diana... she's so talented. I don't even know.

I need all of you to stop being so hateful of something you haven't even seen...

I need a few extra hours in bed, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan delivered to my door.
Y'know, if someone *does* fancy granting unrealistic favours...

The more I see, the happier I am I passed on the 65 dollar tickets for this show.
And Audrey32, I'm assuming you're connected with the show...but when Dorothy is wearing something that resembles a child's piñata around her waist, we are TOTALLY allowed to mock it.
I've always thought the Fort Worth Skyline was more Ozian than Dallas, though. Maybe it's just because 121 goes over a hill at one point and it looks like Emerald City in "The Wiz."

The outfit is horrible. Who thought that putting a woman in that was good? I couldn't sit through more than a minute of that rehearsal footage.
One of the only semi-redeeming things about this (and I still wouldn't go see it), is Diana's singing in it.

Posted: 2/27/09 at 8:01amI consider that an insult to Tin Man, which was actually not as bad as I thought it might be and had Alan Cumming and Zooey Deschanel (wasn't she supposed to be Janis Joplin by now??), plus Kathleen Robertson from 90210 way back in the day. But on a less tangent-based note: yes, this looks horrendous. Sometimes I just wonder: does this crap look good to anyone? The director? The cast? ANYONE? At what point while shooting the photo of child ensemble member with a leash around her neck and looking like she has a black eye did someone really say, "Well this will surely sell tickets"??

Not that I'm one of the people on this board who sits around looking for productions to report, but after watching that ten minute video I posted, I have to wonder if MGM (or whoever deals with the Oz movie) has gotten wind of this. The appearance of Glinda and the Wicked Witch of the West in Munchkinland come from the movie, not the book. Is that why in the "dress rehearsal" Dorothy is wearing jeans and a blouse, because they found out that the blue and white gingham outfit was copyrighted? Or are they trying to figure out a way to make it even shorter than it is in those bizarre publicity photos?

Posted: 2/27/09 at 9:27amI woke up still a little drunk this morning and then watched that rehearsal clip. I'm going back to bed now. The horror...the horror...

PRS-
The blue gingham isn't copyrighted, L. Frank Baum describes her wearing a blue and white checked (so gingham, potentially plaid, but probably gingham) dress in the book, which is now in the public domain.
Glinda being in pink was also a Baum thing (well, Red, but since pink is derivative of red, it's not copyrighted either)

Ah, okay. Thanks, husk.
It still doesn't explain why the scene Munchkinland scene is basically a rewrite of the movie scene, though.
