Spring Awakening should do the little ditty they did at the Drama Desk...I mean Lauren did win a Relly for gogo dancing...so atleast the reprise of mamma... could show off some dancing.

Playbill has an article up with the list.

I'm looking forward to seeing Christine and Erin perform "Peas in a Pod" -- of course it's not the strongest song in the show by any means, but it'll work well for Regis & Kelly and that audience. Plus, it'll be nice to see Erin get some deserved attention!

Posted: 5/31/07 at 5:01pmIt varies, but they generally save it for the last segment/tag. The first half hour is dominated by the host chat/trivia and the first guest segment, so the shows definitely won't be on until after 9:30.

Posted: 5/31/07 at 5:43pmI'll be trying for standby on Thursday. NPH and Grey Gardens? Sounds like an awesome morning to me, even if I don't get a ticket.

Noticed the June 5, performance will be Curtains -- just in time for the CD release. Coincidence, I think not. 
#20re: Regis and Kelly Broadway Week
Posted: 5/31/07 at 9:55pmI think the big question is -- Who draws more viewers: The Tonys or Regis?

Posted: 6/1/07 at 10:38amWhat an amazing performance from Fantasia. I have to admit I didn't like her voice on American Idol, but her voice is so much stronger now. I wish I was in New York so I could see her performance on stage.
#22re: Regis and Kelly Broadway Week
Posted: 6/1/07 at 11:21amWell, thank goodness that Raul from Company is performing. Finally the show decides to start doing some advertising.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Glad you enjoyed the performance - but this was just a little of what Fantasia does with that song every night on Broadway. Her version is even more spectacular in the show. Its too bad you cant see it.
