kchenofan's computer is broken right now. This is her fridge. Now, you can leave a message, but say it slowly, so I can write it on a post-it note and stick it to myself.

Posted: 8/1/09 at 12:25pmLaura Michelle Kelly will NEVER do the role again considering that she had a falling out with Cameron a long time ago.

it's not "Who did I hear", it's "Who do I know for a fact unless something falls through."
Let's just say that he is known to the Broadway community aned last starred in a show with a crazy teeny bopper following.

winston, WHY would you think Groff?
BroadwayBound, I'm not going to say a word.. take that at what you will.
:-P

Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:01pmI don't know if Christian Borle would make a good Bert but he was amazing in LB and I'm seeing the show in November so I really hope it is him because he is very talented. The only thing that bothered me was that he never stagedoored but whatever.
#13re: The next Mary Poppins on Broadway will be...anyone??
Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:02pmI could see him being a very good Bert.

Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:09pmThe next Mary Poppins should be Priscilla Lopez! I would pay so much money to see that, seriously.

Yes
But going along with the whole Christian Borle idea...what about Andy Karl as Bert?
#20re: The next Mary Poppins on Broadway will be...anyone??
Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:37pmAndy Karl could certainly dance the role.

Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:53pmStephanie J Block is looking for work. Isn't she the new "go to" girl everyone here says should go into anything, no matter what it is?

Posted: 8/1/09 at 2:53pmWishingOnlyWounds2, I don't think that Block would make a good Poppins. She doesn't have the proper voice. Poppins is more of a soprano role and judging by Block's singing on The Pirate Queen CD I am willing to bet that she is more of a mezzo if anything.
