Did anyone see Victoria Clark do it regionally? I think she would be a beautiful fit.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
~ Muhammad Ali

I didn't, but I do think she'd be a great fit.
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

I agree that Victoria Clark is very over rated. Faith Prince is a tad too old but could be fun. Dolly is not intended to be as old as most of the actresses who have played her on Broadway. And if they do revive the show, they need to make the same musical edits as the film and ax some real crappy numbers and please, please, please, a Dolly who can actually sing! The role is written for a belter, not someone barking out the lyrics.
What is the deal with people and Stephanie Block? Is it that she's really chatty and friendly at the stage door? Besides not having any marquee value (essential to a commercial run of Dolly!), she can't act her way out of a paper bag.
I'd say, you kids have fun at the show, but I have to clean out the utility closet.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert
Did anyone get to see Rachel York as Dolly? I heard good things about her and would love to see her in the role.

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
