I just can't stop listening to the new CD and thinking of how perfect and silly the show is, and is what it should be!
Am I alone with this?

well, at least it got votes!
but, I can't feel your pain because unfortunately the show hadn't started when I was in NYC last, or maybe you should my pain of that--just kidding-- but, oh yes, what is wrong with the world?

Jordan, you also are helping with the pain, in many ways-- but, YES, Bebe was the perfect one for that role-- who else??? who else could have played Morticia perfectly?
Ugh.

Mmmmm, no. But, I can see her for a later version of the show, but definitely not to define the role! Ugh.

I saw The Addams Family during its tryout here in Chicago. It just...sucked. I know everyone likes to dump on it, and I never felt the need to just repeat what everyone else ways saying. But the show is terrible. Even The Pirate Queen was better.

I'm glad I could help in this horrible time.

Oh, my gosh, I just lost my breath when you compared it to The Pirate Queen. !
The Chicago show must have been terrible or at least sad (no offense to the brilliant Stephanie), but The Addams Family is just a good, smart, silly, loving, and joyous fun, even with a message about "facing your fears to learn how to love"! Now, that's just pure zen (or at least good self-therapy). Again, the casting is perfect!

Did you just say "Ugh" regarding Jan Maxwell, you little Piss Ant? Do you KNOW who she is? Do you have any idea the amount talent that woman possesses? If you EVER and I mean EVER speak poorly about her, I swear on all that is good and holy, I will do what I can to track you down and trust me. It will be more than just malice. When your face is smashed on the steps of the palace.

Peace out.

no, calm down, Jordan, I did not say Ugh about the brilliant Jan. I'm sorry it upset you so.

Actually, I'm not sorry you got upset, that actually is up to you. But, to clarify, I typed that in response to my previous message and despair. It has been a consistent tool I've used to ground myself in these times.
