I've been listening to the cast recording all day. I've loved this show for a while now...
Did anyone see this 6 years ago when it ran Off-Broadway? What are your thoughts?
The cast is sensational:
Kate Wetherhead (Legally Blonde) as Anna
John Lloyd Young (Jersey Boys) as Caleb
Becca Ayers (South Pacific) as Sarah
Herndon Lackey (Lovemusik, Parade) as Jacob
and....
Kenneth Boys as William
Debra Wiseman as Estelle

Posted: 12/21/08 at 12:49amWow, I didn't realize Debra Wiseman was in that. I saw her as Violet in Side Show 10+ years ago.

Posted: 12/21/08 at 9:13pmHas it never been staged? I think it's funny there is a recording but it hasn't ever had a production. The CD wasn't just like a concept CD was it?

Posted: 12/21/08 at 10:07pmGlenn Close was in the TV movie -- I think it was a Hallmark special.

Posted: 12/25/08 at 1:56amI really enjoy most of the stuff Dallas Theatre Center produces. I just moved to New York from Dallas where I did a lot of theatre work. I wish I still lived there, so I could see their production of this!
