| Was it Ethan Mordden who said that of all the Broadway Dollys, the one who came closest to the character in terms of personal warmth was Betty Grable, who was not necessarily as memorable as Channing or Merman....I think Miss Buckley will be wonderful and I'm looking forward to seeing her; If you think it's not promising casting, you don't have to attend(or you could send a friend to 'scout' the production in advance)....They should just cast a good actress. Would you demand an actual psychotic to play Norma Desmond? |
