Saw TA on Saturday and almost died laughing at Nancy Opel's performance. What a voice and comic ability. I saw her in Urinetown and loved her as well.
This lady needs a starring role in a revival! Suggestions?
(of course, she would be a great Miss Hannigan, but I can't stomach a revival of Annie at the moment.)

Posted: 7/8/09 at 10:20pmOpel would be a terrific Cora in ANYONE CAN WHISTLE, though that role has many similarities to the character she's playing in THE TOXIC AVENGER at the moment.

Posted: 7/8/09 at 10:22pmI love Drowsy and wished I had seen the tour. Saw the OBC with Beth but I'm sure Nancy was a hoot as well.

Posted: 7/8/09 at 10:32pmdid anyone see her as Eva? I heard a snippet of a recording and thought her voice wasn't quite right. but she was fairly young and could certainly have been having an off night.

I think she would make a great Lovett...

givesmevoice, if I look hard enough, I have a clip of her singing "Rainbow High" about a year at a cabaret in Pittsburgh. It was fantastic. She just pulled it out on the spot.
I say yes to Lovett!!!

People, people, people! Vera in MAME! HELLOOOO!!
And personally, I'd love to see her as the Witch in INTO THE WOODS. Lots of moments for her to show her comedic traits, but also allows her to shine in her dramatics which she does equally as well.
And I haven't seen the show, but she might do service to Norma Desmond in SUNET BLVD...?
