| I so agree with you. I also don't know why folks are already disqualifying the Peter's performance before she even starts. Many excellent performers have done Dolly. Even now, I have seen both Bette and Donna Murphy in this production and both were fabulous in different ways. Bette is a national icon and treasure, and much of the audiences reaction is based on that. Murphy' is a Broadway treasure, and the audience I was in shoed the same ecstatic reaction as the one for Bette, because she is wonderful in the role. Everyone performer brings their own something to the role, often giving it a different spin, equal, but different. Let's hope that Peters will do the same. | |

| Peters will be great, though I do hope she doesn't cry during "Before the Parade Passes By" -- I think it would be too much. If they reinstate "Love Is Only Love" from the film--originally written for "Mame" I believe, maybe that approach might work. She can be very funny -- I remember especially that she was a hoot in Mel Brooks' "Silent Movie" and on the Carol Burnett show. There have been many humorous touches in her many roles over the years, though she hasn't done that much out and out farcical comedy over the years. | |
