Robert Creighton is a fabulous human and deserves it. Plus, he's a fabulous actor.

Not that it matters cause this will be a massive hit despite her not because of her but I will not be giving a single dollar of my money to Patti Murin.

John Riddle was super hot in THE VISIT and has a great voice, so I'm excited for him as Hans!

Me either which stinks because when it was first announced I was really looking forward to taking my nieces when I got back to NYC

I see you're a new poster here but if you were here during her nonsense or read any of it during that time maybe you would understand why as clearly I'm not the only one who doesn't want give her any money. It's the principle of the whole thing. I can easily see the show whenever she leaves it for good.

Patti Murin just does not deserve all the hate she gets on these boards. I personally do not think her direct address to the board was out of line at all BUT even if you don't agree with what she did we should try to be mature enough to separate the person from the work. There is no denying Murin's talent. She was a fantastic Glinda. She was great in Lysistrata, and she will be a great in Frozen. Everyone hating on her needs to check their ego at the door and appreciate the work.

I'd like to wish her the best. To have a personal grudge against Patti Murin is kind of dodgy. I don't think I could go see the show, since it will be filled with children singing along to the more famous tunes. Yes, I agree that Robert Creighton is a phenomenal talent. I had a chance to see him in "Cagney". What is his "Frozen" character?

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Here is the the whole Patti mess

http://www.broadwayworld.com/board/readmessage.php?thread=1090904

I don't have a personal grudge nor do I hate her but I dislike her and I don't agree with her. I don't need to separate her work from her views because I, like several others here can just wait until shes gone before seeing this show, which I am interested in seeing.

These shows are no different than any other business or product in the end and I'm choosing not to give her my money.

People are allowed to make their own decisions. How does that effect you?

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Now that I'm combing through my memory, I think I saw Caissie Levy in Wicked- not as Elphaba, but when she was in the ensemble...the year 2007. Or am I just hallucinating that?

Pretty much how I feel.

From what I remember, no one personally attached Ms. Murin on these boards. She went and personally attacked various members.

No hallucinations, she was indeed the understudy for much of 2007, before leaving to become standby and then very quickly thereafter the lead in the Los Angeles company.

I must say, whilst I'm a very big fan of Miss Levy, I have serious concerns about this casting. Make no mistake, she'll make a wonderful Elsa there's no doubt there. I just worry that an actress who had to back out of Wicked after four months with vocal problems can handle what you'd expect Elsa to be.

It's been 8 years and she's gone on to lead a broadway show since. I'm sure she's capable. I'm just not sure she's gonna blow us away. Her let it go/let it be cover sounds very bland to me. I just think Betsy was a more interesting choice. Maybe she can go on to timber beetlejuice project, instead.

But that doesn't matter, because we're all here. And with all of our differences we have one thing in common. We're all gay.

If I remember correctly, Elsa is 21 and Anna is 18-19 in the film. Not saying that they don't look pretty youthful still, but.... 10+ years is a pretty big gap.

Perhaps he's choreographing the MFL revival.

Or maybe he didn't get a decision? Didn't they announce something similar for Peter Darling. Suggesting he was really fired.

It's called sarcasm, Jorge.

Gattelli was doing press for FROZEN at the same time the MY FAIR LADY announcements came out. Though Sher's creative team was listed, the choreographer was not. ( at least not on the many that I read)

But, who knows? If he got the boot from FROZEN, then maybe now he CAN do MY FAIR LADY.

He also choreographed SPONGE BOB in Chicago, so that could be in the mix at one point as well.
