I just meant in general not specifically as The Baker's Wife, some people in musical theater fail to get the laughs. It was called musical comedy at first after all. I was just trying to praise Gleason as somebody who had the ability to be funny. (sort of like how I remember Glenn Close getting huge laughs in Sunset Blvd. on the part when she presents her Salome screenplay to him and he asks "how old is this character?" and she says 16. Close brought the house down with her delivery of that line while I've seen others get nothing.
BTW how was Cynthia Sikes in Into the Woods? I was a big St. Elsewhere watcher as a kid. |
