Well, Jennifer Hudson is too young for Jewel, so it would actually make more sense to have a Mona that is young too.

It's a concert. Age doesn't matter. In the past the Actors' Fund had a 50-year-old Lillias White playing Effie, and nobody seemed to mind. As long as Skinner can hit the notes (and I have no doubt that she can), her age doesn't matter in this scenario.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Skinner would sing the part beautifully. And I agree for a concert, it doesn't really matter how old the performers are.

But I would just be bit surprised they didn't snag a more of a "box office draw" for this leading role. But if it goes to Emily, I'm sure she'll be terrific.
