I would kill to see her originate a new role. I mean what was the last role she originated on Broadway? Maybe Sondheim will have a part for her in his new musical.

We are her loving fans . That’s who we are.. And I personally don’t get a kick out of seeing the same concert with the same patter. She is better than that.. loveher and I won’t miss a stop near me.

I also am a loving fan, but do not feel entitled to say "she is better than that" about her career and/or concert song selections. If we do not like what she offers we can choose not to attend.

Well I do.  I pay for my tickets.  So I am certainly entitled. And it is not about song selection.  I love every time she does Time Heals, or  Children Will Listen.   She just needs to put on a new show.   And I certainly don't need to hear about her apartment again.  I mean.. its been 20 years of the same patter.  

I agree with GeorgeandDot.  I would love to see her in a new show.

She certainly can continue her concert gigs. And, although she may not be an "A" name for TV and film, she's certainly known, so I'm sure that occasional cameos and supporting characters will be available to her, given availability. Perhaps creating another leading role in a Broadway musical may not be in the cards at this point, but there are still options and opportunities for us to see her. (I hope!)
