Riedel: CAT revival selling well, despite an investor pulling out; Sutton 1st to leave FRANK — Page 2

So, here's hoping I get lotto tickets when I go next month to see YF. I really want to see it especially with Sutton(My mom wants to see her too, my mom loves Sutton).

Oddly enough I'm seeing Cat on A Hot Tin Roof on Thursday with my Acting II class.

fflagg is right on--Debbie Allen should be directing industrials for Amway.

Oh it was something--like a Bazooka Joe wrapper written by Maya Angelou.

Up until now I've had zero interest in Shrek. I've stated before that I'd pay to see Sutton read the phone book, well this is some what better than that, and even though this is not my cup of tea, I think she'll be great great in this role.

I had a feeling Cat was selling well. Every time I've walked past that box office, there have been at least 5 or 6 people in there, queued up to buy tickets. It's strange to see a line in the box office, with the proliferation of phone and especially internet orders.

Foster, from that point?

She has done two plays. "Bernarda Alba" and "Cymbeline". How large is this hill she's been going down? Two performances?

Brick, I also saw her in the A WONDERFUL LIFE benefit performance for the Actors Fund.

Each performance has been a duplicate of her RAISIN performance. Same vocal inflections, same posture, same bag of tricks.

question, are there student rush tix avaible for this play this week? if not, when will they be available?

thanks, i will try the rush this thursday.

I, like most people, fell in love with Clair Hanks Huxtable, and became more familiar with Phlyicia Rashad sometime later. Apparently, she has always been a smidge haughty and affected. I read an article by a Dreamgirls OBC member who said something to the effect of Ms. Rashad always having a put-upon look on her face; as if she felt that she belonged in a production more complimentary of her talents. In her Lifetime Intimate Portrait, she shared moments of her past with a quivering voice, and watery, fluttering, half-mast eyes as if she was doing the affective memory exercise. The only things missing from her Tony acceptance speech were a crown, sceptre, and ermine-trimmed cape. Meanwhile, if I met her on the street, I would ugly cry.

what talents? She ain't Lena Horne or Diahann Carroll. She makes Halle Berry look talented.

I don't think anyone in this thread has denied her talents. She's just a bit...haughty.

However, I've liked her in just about everything I've ever seen her in.

Who the hell is Lena Horne or Diahann Carroll when it comes to Phylicia Rashad? And why must you people compare folks to another?
It's about art...not popularity contests.
