Posted: 7/19/05 at 7:35pmDaisy Eagan of course won the Tony for her great portrayal and I know that Lydia Ooghe is listed in the final playbill as Mary Lennox. Besides Kimberly Mahon, who was the alternate, was there anyone else who played Mary Lennox on Broadway? Did anyone here see Mahon and/or Ooghe and have a review? Thanks!

Posted: 7/19/05 at 7:58pmI happened to know this one, because I saw her do it several times. It was Melody Kay.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 8:14pmI also know someone who saw it on Broadway with a girl named Lee Alison Marino in the role and she's not listed on ibdb either so I wasn't sure if there were others in that situation. How was Melody Kay?

Posted: 7/19/05 at 8:17pmThat name doesn't ring a bell. I know Melody did the final performance. I thought she was great. Although Daisy was still my favorite.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 8:22pmI saw Kimberly because her sister Kristen was our Baby Louise (Tyne Daly GYPSY) and I was friendly with the family. She was wonderful!

Not at all. Daisy wasn't cast in every child's part in every show.
Unlike Ms. Fanning who gets every single role for children written in film these days.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 8:33pmI pretty sure it was Melody, but I could be totally wrong. I know Melody also went on to do the tour (with Roger Bart). There was that E! Behind The Scenes on it that was really cool.
