Well she doesn’t sing well. We’ve never seen her dancing so can only imagine how she’d do and her acting leaves a lot to be desired. Her run in GUYS AND DOLLS in the West End wasn’t exactly a huge success so who knows what she’s thinking. Perhaps a musical where the protagonist finds themselves trapped in a musical despite not being musically inclined?

Having read the views from those who had seen the show I was interested in listening to the recording. Groff sounds... fine. Nothing special. Obviously he sings incredibly well but much like Aaron Tveit in MOULIN ROUGE there doesn’t seem to be much soul which is surprising considering the reviews I’ve read about him.
Blanchard is definitely the weakest vocally but she must be commended for doing something unique with the role. While I miss the powerhouse vocals us
Interesting idea. The issue is that The Sound of Music is a true story, the characters are real people who’s children are still alive today so I’m not sure how well it would go down.

A lot of JAGGED LITTLE PILL sounds like DOGFIGHT and DEAR EVAN HANSEN. Nothing in particular just the overall sound of the shows.

I’m pretty sure she was joking. She’s previously said she’s too old for the role and de-aging someone in film is incredibly expensive. Considering she isn’t that much of a box office draw they may as well get a star for the money they’d spend on the de-aging process. Someone said it before but I’d love to see her play Melena, Elphaba’s mother. Not sure where Chenoweth could fit into the film - maybe they’d create a fun role for her ala Chita Rivera in Chicago?

It’s going on a UK tour before it returns to the West End. I think that’s a smart move personally.

I’m sure the original plan was to have six seasons but given all that’s happened recently with Prince Andrew and the drama surrounding Meghan I wouldn’t be surprised if Netflix squeezed another season or two out of the show featuring a much older Queen than what Staunton can portray.
While I do agree that a live version would be a great idea, Ryan Murphy is adapting A CHORUS LINE for Netflix as a ten-part series so I doubt there’ll ever be a live adaption of the show.
HAIRSPRAY. Tracey imagines the whole show from her hospital bed where she’s recovering from an eating disorder gone wrong. Her mother appears to her as a man in drag to cope with the sexual abuse she faced as a young girl. Every song other than those referencing food and segregation is cut. No interval.
