I kind of agree with her. However, it would've been pretty spectacular to see her and Audra on a Broadway stage together.

If she wants happier plays, I wonder if she was really considering THE VISIT???

The article goes on to say she's considering two other titles. I hope one of them is a new play.

Thank goodness she has come to her senses. Maybe she actually read the play rather than allowing her "team" to make decisions.

It's too bad Rosie O'Donnell is in such rough shape because she and Oprah could do James Kirkwood's "Legends."


If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

I was told today that Phylicia Rashad and her daughter, Condola, were offered to do the show.


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

^ I don't hate that.  Not a single bit.


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.

I think Condola reads a little too young for that part, honestly.

This show went from must-see to no-thanks.
