"It seems to me that she intended to play the role with no "lesbian undertones," whatever the script said... and believed that everyone else would bow to accommodate her desired interpretation."
Okay, thanks, now this is (maybe) starting to make a little more sense. I guess she wanted to play the role with no "lesbian undertones," and would have quit if the production insisted she play it WITH the lesbianism intact, but she didn't get the chance to quit because they (justifiably) fired her first. Does that sound accurate?
I guess the most confusing part that remains is how this performer could have been unaware of the lesbian content in the show after having appeared in a previous production, in another role. But who knows, maybe the lesbianism was very much played down in that previous production? I wonder if it came down something as specific as: Maybe there was no kiss between the characters in the previous production, and she was told that she would be a kiss in the new one? |
