"Her acting seemed like an opera singer who's worked hard to be able to act in a nonmusical. She wasn't painful or embarrassing but she wasn't really good."
That's how I felt about Fleming's acting in CAROUSEL, and unfortunately, even her singing in that show was not enjoyable (to me) because of all those silly embellishments that were added. I wonder if those were her idea, or the musical director's? Either way, I DID NOT like them. One of the many wrongheaded decisions in that production, in my opinion. |
