Posted: 6/29/06 at 11:55amHer part is not small at all. Roxie Hart is the lead character.

Posted: 6/29/06 at 11:58amI would say that Velma is the lead character...

Posted: 6/29/06 at 12:11pmIt's a toss up, because Roxie has more stage time, but Velma has the more showy numbers. They're both Lead Roles, but I always view the show as Roxie's journey (much like the movie actually)...

-Munk-
The show has 2 leading characters, but clearly Roxie is on stage A LOT more, have you seen the show?
Indeed Velma has the showy numbers.

It depends what actresses are playing Roxie and Velma regarding which one is the lead.
As for Rita, she was alright (certainly better than SOME stunt casting that comes to mind) but I didnt think she was anything WOW worthy.
If in Heaven you don't excel, you can always party down in hell...

My comment was meant to be a joke, but clearly none one got it. It's my fault - it was such a random joke. I was basically saying how stupid it is to argue who is and who is not a lead.
And Muscle, don't ask me if I've seen the show. I've seen it atleast 10 times.

Oy vey who cares about the stupid joke.
Anyway--I saw Wilson and was dissapointed--she seemed like she was in a high school production for most of it--her gestures were awkward and at times was over the top. There were other moments where I was impressed, but for the most part, I wanted a real singer/actress. Her voice was the weakest part overall.
