I like it! Looks a tad like a Desperate Housewives poster

I'm surprised "the NEW Kathie Lee Gifford musical" isn't somewhere on it.

Looks too much like a TV show promotion to me.

I love that Carolee has above-the-title billing.

I know I'm not supposed to be, but considering the cast and subject matter... and Kathie Lee Epstein aside... I'm excited about this show.

I like the artwork! I wonder if that will be the playbill cover?

That artwork looks like an ad for a Lifetime network movie. If the artwork contains three-dimensional block lettering and bling, then you know they're already cutting corners on creativity.

Has anyone seen the show? Is it any good?

If i remember right it got very mixed reviews. Sub-par lyrics, a ugly set, but Carolee got absolute raves, as did Judy Kaye who played her mother.

I was expecting to see the ABC logo somewhere on the website. Now, I have one question. Is the show going to be billed as "Scandalous?" Or, is the show going to be billed as "The Life and Trails of Aimee Semple McPherson Scandalous?"

It is billed as Scandalous, but the full title is Scanndalous: The Life and Trails of Aimee Semple McPherson.

I agree that the artwork looks more like a tv movie than a staged theatrical production. Then again, it makes sense-it's very Kathy Lee Epstein-ish.

I like it! It's simple, in a good way.

I actually really love it.

It's terrible and tells me nothing about the show.
With that logo I expect the story is about Snow White or Adam and Eve.

huh....so do we think Gifford's checkbook is the reason this show made the move? It doesnt really have much appeal...

I don't know what 1920s clouds, hands and apples looked like, but I'm sure they didn't look like this.

I see that the website has some pictures up from the Seattle production. And that there are no less than three pictures of Ed Watts shirtless...

matinee if your interested in who is financing the piece this article goes into detail. It has some very conservative, religious, billionaires behind it.

That hand irks me for some reason, too smooth almost alien. Think the whole design looks really cheap.

I like it too - been a good season so far for logos n such (not counting Chaplin).

This looks like Scandolous : The untold story of Snow White!

Kathie Lee promoted the show like crazy on this morning's episode. Honestly, some of the music sounds pretty catchy. And it looks like Carolee is going to be a force of nature.

read many drafts when it was called HURRICANE i believe, pre-Seattle. i hear it improved a lot there. i like her sense of melody fine but not the lyrix then or the libretto, though i find Aimee's story fascinating. i have demos of Carolee and she does indeed sound amazing but i don't think it's Kaye on those too...love me some Eds in that workshop though, Mr. Watts and Mr. Dixon. This title change is interesting and provocative i think. i also saw Dixon in her show UNDER THE BRIDGE or UNDERNEATH, or such, at the Zipper, based on a story or novel about a French family who were homeless under a Paris bridge and the old man who they encountered. Dixon was opposite the always vocally powerful and good actress Jacqui Piro. Pretty charming with good perfs, and again some lovely music (can't recall if it was hers or a collaborator's) if not quite inspired lyrics. Kathie can come off like a slight cartoon for sure, but she has musical talent and drive to do this. i am hoping for the best, honestly. She was of course at the perf of BRIDGE and was charming in the lobby afterward, coming in after lights up to not distract from the real acting company; her notoriety can attract money and PR of course, and this project seems maybe a bit more worthy of it than that one.
