OK, I know, I know, I never got back on a regular schedule... It was all Tony stuff, all the time and I just didn't have anything to add. You know why? I didn't have any passionate attachment to any of those shows/performances. It was such a blah year for me. I don't think I'm alone.
Anyway, so it looks like we're in for the Broadway return of Diana DeGarmo, who I like and thought was a great Penny Pingleton. No, she's not going back to Hairspray. She's going to Hairspray producer Adam Epstein's other show, Godspell. So, that makes like her, Gavin Creel, Telly Leung, and, oh wait, I stopped caring already. That was quick.
Now, I know Broadway is Raul Esparza crazy. But am I the only one who thinks Leap of Faith needs a bigger star? Now, by that, I don't necessarily mean a television or film star... But somehow I want a bigger star, someone who commands the stage no matter what. Someone who you are always watching. I'm only always watching Raul when he's being out-of-control... I say this because the material isn't amazing enough on its own, it needs a big star. It's the kind of thing that person is really going to need to sell the hell out of... I hope Raul is that person, but I'm not yet convinced. There is nothing new about that, but I was just thinking about it.
I do hear Allison Janney is now singing better, so that's good for all those of you out there who, like me, are Dolly fans.
What can I say about Legally Blonde the television spectacular? It's really something. I like all the "a broadway actress has to bring it all the time" talk. Has anyone ever seen multiple Jessica Boevers performances in the same show? Because, let me tell you....
OK, sleep. More regular posts in the future. I promise.

Is there a source on Diana DeGarmo being in Godspell? I'd heard about Gavin before.
Is Diana playing Robin?
Raul will be perfect for this part. Wait and see.
would multiple Jessica Boevers performances be a good thing? I can't tell.
Merely need to say your article is as tonishing. The clearness in your submit is simply spectacular and that i can assume you're an skilled on this subject. Effectively along with your permission allow me to seize your rss feed to keep up to date with forthcoming post. Thanks 1,000,000 and please keep up the gratifying work.
Nice points¡I would note that as someone who really doesn¡¯t remark to blogs a lot (the truth is, this may be my first publish), I don¡¯t suppose the term ¡°lurker¡± may be very flattering to a non-posting reader. It¡¯s not your fault at all, however perhaps the blogosphere may come up with a better, non-creepy title for the ninety% of us that take pleasure in reading the posts.
I like this website so much, bookmarked .
