Little Me @ Encores

Mrs. Eggleston is a minuscule role, but an adept comic ham can always make something out of even the tiniest bit - look at Julie Halston in You Can't Take It With You, or Brooks Ashmanskas in Sunday In The Park With George.

I've never witnessed "I've Got Your Number" stop the show. It gets a good hand, but that's it. Rumor has it that Swenson was exceptionally sexy in the role, but you'll note that it didn't put him on the road to stardom.

I could've watched "The Rich Kids Rag" go on for a good 10 minutes and I wouldn't mind one bit. 

Too bad it was so early in the show! I thought the Porchlight production was good for what it was. The Revisits series they do is only for three performances, so it's understandable for lack of rehearsal. 

Next up for them is "On a Clear Day..." to finish off this season. Porchlight just announced, "Woman of the Year," "They're Playing Our Song," and "Do-Re-Mi" for its next season. I am happy Chicago has this for us to watch. I am sad I missed out on when they did, "Applause."
