I’m sure she has the range based on how high she’s been known to belt/mix, it’s really more a question of the quality of her soprano."
This. Remember how beautiful Jessie's soprano turned out to be in Carousel? Her parts in "If I Loved
Or if you want a scene where women aren't discussing men, something from War Paint. Face To Face is still one of the best dramatic songs ever written imho
2019 Tony Awards are 100 days away, Sunday June 9, 2019.
Who would we like to see host the event? I personally would love to see them tap someone like Cher, but barring that... John Mulaney after his excellent Co-op parody.

I feel like it was about Elsa trying to find their dead parents? Don't know why else she would be in front of a sea/ocean otherwise. Either that, or she's inventing surfing which I'd also watch.

How ironic is that Rent of all things is so highly commercialized? I saw a picture the other day of it being advertised on Saks Fifth. I mean... what the actual...

My favorite movie of the year was Boy Erased. I have no idea why that wasn't nominated for best movie
Torch Song should be considered unmissable, in my opinion. I saw it over a month ago, and still haven't stopped thinking about it. Other shows I saw which I'd recommend - Waverly Gallery, The Ferryman.
I like Laura Linney for this, but would watch Meryl on stage in a heartbeat (which I won't have because I'd have died as soon as she entered the stage). Helena-Bonham Carter could be interesting too.

I don't know her work outside of Hamilton, Great Comet, and Amelie. Are you saying she's not funny because she has mostly been in serious/quirky roles? Or have you seen her failing at humor?

I mean... sure
Christopher Jackson - Narrator Leslie Odom Jr - Baker Renee Elise Goldsberry - Baker's wife (and Jack's mom?) Anthony Ramos - Jack Pippa - Cinderella Jasmine Cephas Jones - Little Red (and also Rapunzel, actually - doubt cast) Daveed Diggs - Price #1 Lin - Price #2, Oak - The Wolf
I really miss her voice. What show do we think she'll do next? Any dream-casting suggestions? I'd love to see entire Hamilton OBC do an Into The Woods revival, with Soo as Cinderella. (I have the full casting in my mind, if anyone's curious. It fits almost too perfectly to be coincidental)
She could be a great Cathy in The Last Five Years as well.

I disagree. This is poor quality comfort food. Yes, most of the songs were good to hear, well sung, and many were very well staged. But the book is an embarrassment. So yes the appetizers were tasty, and the dessert was great, but the main course tasted like it came out of a can."
Does Amy Morton's Glengarry Glen Ross have a house announced yet? Yes sure David Mamet is not an "up and coming" American writer, but neither was Harvey. I wonder if they'll move up the production to open this season (it's currently announced for May 2019 I believe).
