I think it's arguable that a few of the Roxies who followed Ann Reinking were better in the role, even if Reinking's dancing was in a class of its own. Her Roxie from the planet Mars was interesting, but so out of style with what everyone else was doing. Perhaps in a different production with more stylized acting, her performance would have made more sense. I liked her performance, and her dancing really was amazing, but certainly some later Roxies were superb and fit the production better.
People I know who saw Reinking in the original production do not recall her giving quite so stylized a performance back then. |
