This has disaster written all over it
It will be dismissed by the critics as Wildhorn Lite.
Rebecca would suffer the same fate if and when it ever opened.

I don't know how much truth there is to this tidbit, but I'm even more pissed that Warlow isn't coming with it...

Posted: 9/25/14 at 7:13pmWarlow has aged out hasn't he? He was on the margin, age wise, when it was in Australia over 3 years ago.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 7:36pmIf their goal is to get a cast album and release the rights as Doctor Zhivago The Broadway Musical then I think it's a great idea.

It was a tiresome bore in Australia. Unless there is a radical overhaul I can't see it being any better on Broadway. Book now for disappointment !

Posted: 9/26/14 at 3:29amInteresting that Doc Z can achieve capitalisation but the global hit that is Rebecca hasn't. :o (
Why don't you go? Why don't you leave Manderley? He doesn't need you... he's got his memories. He doesn't love you, he wants to be alone again with her. You've nothing to stay for. You've nothing to live for really, have you?

Forgettable and boring. The show was such a disappointment in Australia .
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

It was a bore in La Jolla, too.
"Good Lord, is Wildhorn your Loretta Swit?"
I love you, Matt.
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! :-)
