Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Posted: 10/31/05 at 1:40pmIt's the same thing for the witch transformation in "Into the Woods." The real witch slips offstage during the scene and a body-double comes on while she is changing into the "beautiful" witch. When I saw the revival, the recording was so bad that it was OBVIOUS the double was lip-synching. I think I remember the same thing with the Boq transformation, only the recording wasn't as bad -- you can just tell that the sound is different for Boq's speaking after the transformation and Nessa's LIVE speaking.
