i'm very intrigued by this show... does anyone think it has any chance at transferring?
I'll have to see it first b/f I can say if it has a chance of transferring but I will say that I'm very excited about seeing it. The cast is truly worthy of being on Broadway! It starts previews in just over 2 weeks! *squeal*
Where are all the Leslie Kritzer fans? I know there's a full squad of 'em. And Orfeh! I finally get to see Orfeh live! Alright, that's enough. :)

i only know leslie kritzer from the godspell with shoshana bean, barrett foa, chad kimball, capathia jenkins... did that show have everyone in it? haha.
but i have to say that shuler, orfeh and kaitlyn together make me excited... not to mention linda hart!
betty, i expect full reports!
The camera was quite a fan of Leslie.
I'm so excited for Orfeh to be in a new show.
Annnd I'm excited for her and Andy to be working together at Dodger until he leaves. *squeal*
WE BETTER GET A CAST RECORDING.I neeeed something with Orfeh on it!
I'm a Kritzer fan. I think she's one role away from a major explosion, in theater/film/television...whatever she wants to do.
And, maybe it's just me but she looks really sexy in these pics.

Ooh, I can't wait for this musical to open up either. I'm a huge Kritzer fan, and this show just looks hysterical.
I wonder what's up with the floor, though.... what with the drama masks and all...

what else has kritzer been in that everyone knows her from? i only know her from godspell...
She was in Grease at the Paper Mill with Andy Karl.
I hardly know any of those people other than Hensley and Orfeh whom I would pay good money to see on stage together. But I have to ask, WHO is the "so tan, she's orange" woman so prominently featured in the photos?
More pictures.

Kritzer will be the star of this one, and yes!,I do believe she is on her way to being one of the most talked about talents on Broadway, wish her well, she deserves every accolade!
I tend to think of Orfeh more as the show-stopper, yet I haven't seen/heard Leslie.
Al Dente, you're probably thinking of Leslie.
Still, I seem to be a tinge alone of this thread about this, but I'm VERY excited for Orfeh to be in a new show. It's about time she showcased that frickin' powerhouse of a voice.
Don't worry Almostfamous, this is BROADWAY world, where life and apparently, musical theater "fame" begins and ends with Wicked, Cheno and who the best understudies in the world are. Out here in the rest of the entertainment world, far more people know and are excited about Orfeh being back in a show, so you're hardly alone. As I said earlier, it was an inspired idea to pair Hensley and Orfeh in a show as love interests. Just the visuals alone make me want to see them.
Al Dente! Where have you been!!?
I've been trying to behave Marquise and keeping posts to a minimum. Seriously, I was in London for a quick moment and also relocated offices here in L.A. But now, I'm baaaaack, muhahhaaahahha!!!!

Does anyone have any discount codes for this show...I have searched high and low (broadwaybox, playbill, etc.)and have been unsuccessful. I would really appreciate any help, thanks.
Ah, Al Dente, so I'm not alone! There is justice in the world! I rewatch that video on Broadway.com of her Cabaret at Feinstein's ALL the time.
I was trying to locate that single she released with Or-N-More back in the early 90s called 'Everyotherday'. It is NOWHERE to be found. I spent like, an entire day looking for it. Google hated me that day.
oved, they probably won't release the discount codes yet, you can keep checking the Trailer Park site, because they might put it up.
"I wonder what's up with the floor, though.... what with the drama masks and all..."
It's a remnant from the "Bare" set.
apdarcey, leslie was in hairspray for a while (don't think she had any significant role), and the national tour of urinetown before that (as little becky two-shoes, I believe). saw her in urinetown and adored her, she's very funny and talented. I agree with birdlives and starlight - future broadway star in the making.
I can't stand Orfeh.
Kaitlin Hopkins will be the star, IMO.
Orfeh is one singer I always thought would cross over, while a limited actress, her voice soars.
leslie starred in Paper Mill's Funny Girlin 2001 , got outstanding reviews... and that girl is seconds away from becoming a star!
Oh and for clarification, in Hairspray, leslie played shelly, and was tracy u/s (yeah, she wore a fat suit). Phenomenal in both roles.
Oh I can't wait! I love me some Leslie !
Melissa Errico fan, I wouldn't expect someone with your name to like Orfeh. That's probably a compliment to her. I still shudder at the memory of Errico trying to sing pop in Dreckula. Give me Ms.Orfeh any day over Errico's warbling.
