| Either show can work with someone not a super star playing the role if they are good. I saw a young person's theater a few years ago in NY who jobbed in a Yale student for their Harold Hill, and he was one of the better Harold Hills I've ever seen. The show was pretty well cast, though younger than usual for a few roles, but it still delivered. And i wasn't disappointed by the expectation of dashed hopes of a big star like Dick Van Dyke, who should have been good, but wasn't and almost dragged down his whole production (with the exception of his Marian). Even if Jackman got all around great reviews, he's not worth the price of a round trip ticket to Europe or to Los Angeles depending on the ticket price. |
