RUBEN STUDDARD, YOU'RE NEXT: Seriously, is the announcement that Justin Guarini will be in the upcoming Broadway production of Women on the Verge of A Nervous Breakdown (as the son of Patti LuPone and Brian Stokes Mitchell) going to sell a single additional ticket? In fact, while my interest was high (in addition to LuPone and Mitchell, cast includes Sherie Rene Scott and Laura Benanti, and a score by David Yazbek), if anything, this lowers it.

Hey, if it means someone running a Google search gets to read Nathan Rabin's Commentary Tracks of the Damned for the Justin and Kelly movie, I'm all for it.
ReplyDelete"<span>Iscove keeps pointing out continuity errors and mistakes, but the nitpicking seems a bit like complaining about the Nazis' healthcare system. "</span>
Better still is the TWOP recap of the film, comprised of a list of 146 reasons why the film sucks (in chronological order, no less!). (Sadly, TWOP seems to be FUBAR right now, and I can't link beyond the first page of a cache.)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I don't follow Broadway that closely but I thought Patti was joining Fela.
ReplyDeletePatti LaBelle is joining Fela. Patti LuPone would not fit in over there.
ReplyDeleteRuben has already toured nationally with Ain't Misbehavin. (With Frenchie and Trenyce.) I did blog about it here. Is he just waiting for a Little Shop revival so he can voice Audrey II?
ReplyDeleteThe person on the radio said LuPone (twice!) because I thought, "wow" and "uh, really?" Thanks for the clarification.
ReplyDeleteIt's back up now.
ReplyDelete"<span>19. As Kelly and her friends arrive, Justin is working the beach with his two friends, Eddie and Brandon. They refer to themselves as the "Pennsylvania Posse.""</span>
The notion of Patti LuPone in Fela is giving me a giggle fit.
ReplyDeleteI had the same reaction when I heard it!!
