"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
I think she will be fabulous in the role but she's so little!! I hope the headress is lightweight as she may topple over on that staircase. Then again those gavotting waiters can toss her around the stage like a salad, that could be a spectacular number.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
I'm confused as to when ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY is ever going to actually happen. It's been delayed time and time again because of Chenoweth's various television commitments and then her unfortunate injury. Now, she's completely healed and available and yet, from what I've heard, even with Roundabout having a gap in their season, it's still not happening.
Casting her in DOLLY seems incredibly bizarre when there are so many other seemingly better qualified candidates to be had, but stranger things have worked, I guess.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.
Carol Channing was 43 when she originated Dolly. Chenoweth is 45.

No!! Please make it stop. Why would we want Tinkerbell to play Dolly?
Chenoweth, because of her voice, always comes across as a little girl. She is not right for the role.
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.
