Roger looks fantastic in the role! Can't wait to actually see this cast. It surprises me how much of the OBC bailed once their contracts were up...but then it doesn't. lol
First off, I love the fact that Roger Rees rivals Bebe in height! He also has a terribly uncanny resemblance to Raul Julia in those photos. Eerie! Next wouldn't you bail on the show once your contract was up after all those bad reviews? This poor actors had to go onstage and perform that horrid dialogue and that awful score night after night. For the life of me i don't know how they stayed awake. I know I didn't when I saw it in November. I guess Jackie Hoffman and Nathan Lane kept everyone on their toes each night with their ad-lib sections. I only went because I am a huge Jackie Hoffman fan and to get a signed playbill. So sad her video blog is over!
I wouldn't leave if I didn't have another job to go to. Not that they don't - just a thought. I've been in shows that were panned and I wouldn't leave until I was secured with another gig, although I hated being in those shows.
I enjoy The Addams Family. One of the few here who does. lol
I really am anxious to see Roger in the role. Won't be able to make it to NY anytime soon, though. :/
