Thanks for everyone's reviews on this show.
I am interested to see this production myself, I want to see how it was interpreted. I personally have never seen a live production of it either, so that will be interesting too.
Random question though... does anyone know the previous experience of Li Jun Li? I know Liat's not a huge role or anything, but the show itself doesn't have a cast page information on their website.
Thanks :)

I love that green dress, third from the bottom in korenglish's post. Doesn't hurt that Kelli is drop-dead gorgeous.

Posted: 3/16/08 at 6:09pmWith all respect to the current cast, does anybody know who played Nellie Forbush in the last national tour (which starred Robert Goulet as Emile). I was very pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the tour and I thought the lady who played Nellie was very good.

Posted: 3/16/08 at 6:12pmContact PB ENT. She developed a warm and lasting relationship with Robert Goulet as a result of her review of that production.

"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."

Posted: 3/17/08 at 9:58amI saw Kate Baldwin play Nellie in a regional theater production and thought she was awesome. I was kind of hoping this would be her big Broadway breakthrough role, but I loved Kelli.
