Good, this time it's playing within 30 minutes of my house. I won't have to travel to Boston and then Denver like I did for the first tour.

Well, looks like I'm going to Mansfield, Ohio on April 6th. Nothing will compare to my memories of the previous touring cast, but I've got to check this one out.

A super-talented former classmate of mine is on the tour. I've heard great things about the new cast.

But the lyric about her blonde hair is still in the show.

Johanna didn't have blonde hair in the original version of Doyle's staging, either. It's called suspension of disbelief.

by original you mean the playhouse production , or the broadway production, because I'm pretty sure she was a blonde on broadway

Did the Doyle production start on Broadway? No.

I mean the version that began at the Watermill.

My Friend Duke Anderson is playing Anthony. I did a production of Cabaret with him last summer. Wonderful actor, wonderful singer and a lovely guy.

Is it just me, or does the angle of the razor make it look like Mrs. Lovett just sent a naughty text message in this pic?

Saw it in Hartford last night - I am not much of a reviewer but give it a B+ - Mrs. Lovett was very good.
