yes. I just thought it was important to memorialize one of the biggest fiascos in casting history (and that's saying a lot). "Rather lost" is either an understatement or a euphemism. Sorry if it made such an impression on me that I can't unsee it. lol

On the night I saw her, she had Yitzhak sing over half of Hedwig's songs. Some of the monologs worked--she has a magnetism--but this certainly wasn't her role. And fiasco is certainly an apt word.

I guess I got lucky - we didn't see a fiasco, more like a competent understudy in the star part.
