Doesn’t she’s do stand up? Maybe that’s what she was referring to.

I saw DeLaria play a woman in THE BOYS FROM SYRACUSE and she reminded me of seeing Ethel Merman when I was 13.

Yes, she was THAT good, like Merman the perfect combination of a great belt and insanely funny low comedy!

She was the highlight in an otherwise bland On the Town revival at the Gershwin a few years back. Unfortunately I don’t think she can no longer pull off playing traditional female roles.

They announced the cast last week and she wasn’t in it. 

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Not in New York, but she is in the process of opening a new jazz club in Ptown, taking over the old Pied Bar. It’s due to open in a few weeks.

She’s the new Jenna. Confirmed.
I am big. It’s the REVIVALS that got small.
