Posted: 8/7/05 at 6:49pmWell, how many of millions of dollars in tickets will this sell? Anyone want to guess? I'll bet the run is sold out before the reviews come out.

Posted: 8/7/05 at 6:57pmIt's great that two openly homosexual people are playing husband and wife.

Hey. Maybe Rosie can pull a BROOK SHIELDS? We never know.
Honestly who expected Brooke to get RAVE reviews for Ruth? But she proved everyone wrong with a stunning performance.
Maybe Rosie can do the same.

Isn't this sad? It sounds like a joke cast someone on bway world would make up
"Harvey Fierstein as Tevye and Rosie O'Donnell as Golde! HAHA!"
"No two shows are alike in the making. Each show is a living
piece of your life in a small unreal world with its own character
and integrity; its own new set of memorable experiences and
incredible happenings. You begin to love and adapt to its strangeness.
Dreams harden into substance. Values come into focus. You wish
it would never end. The dream world vanishes like mist before a
rising sun; part of you vanishes with it. And back you land in the
real world with a thud- fogged, uneasy, jittery, difficult to get
along with. There is only one cure. A new show. A new, small
unreal world; new visions, experiences, incredible happenings.
Again you love it, adapt to it, wish it would never end.
But end it does. Another part of you vanishes.
That's show business."-Anonymous
