| Sorry if this has been discussed before. I re-watched the Shoshana Bean concert that was done at the Westport Playhouse, via a PBS station, with a friend last night. After her Streisand medley, he said " with her around, why wasn't SHE offered the FG role?". I've thought that before too. I'm not sure if she was available or even thought of by the casting people. She clearly could sing the crap out of the role and with all her stage experience she could probably act the crap out of it as well. During our discussion, he added that she was really able to sing all of the "Streisand" songs with her own 'take" on them. I felt the same way. I will always wonder why with all these wonderful singer-actresses around why they settled on Beanie. And I know there are those who feel Beanie has a "following" but is it that great that pre-teen girls would storm the August Wilson theatre indefinitely? Just asking :-) | |
