Posted: 2/4/11 at 2:25pmI would pay to see Oprah as Mama. Not so much for Brinkley as Roxie...

Posted: 2/4/11 at 2:43pmWhat's up with all these older women playing Roxie? Yes, I understand Gwen Verdon did it originally. But there has to be some plausibility that people would believe that Roxie is pregnant.

Brinkley is 57. She looks great.
Chita Rivera played the role in her late 60s.

Posted: 2/4/11 at 4:51pmThank God Oprah wasn't announced as Mama Morton. Apologies to Oprah lovers, but that woman does not need anymore exposure. It's bad enough we're stuck with her for all eternity.

Gothampc, I think that more important than the believe that Roxie is past her prime as an entertainer than to believe she is pregnant.
I think Zellweger was too young to do the film, which is why many of the Roxies on Broadway now seem especially "old."

You got to admit that bringing in middle-aged actresses and celebrities to play Roxie have a large part in Chicago's success. Women/mothers are usually the ones who make the theatre-going decisions, so starring older women as Roxie they have grown up with and relate to will give this show a lot more attention than it usually would.

Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.
