| I also found the Tony performance incredibly tough to watch. My throat just hurt for her! I saw the show and it was a wonderfully gutting moment. I'm sorry to sound naive but why is it that composers and arrangers feel they need to push an actor to those unhealthy limits? It should be able to be performed in a healthy way and yet still have the dramatic punch. I don't recall feeling that way watching Angela or Bette or Tyne performing Rose's Turn when I saw them. And yet, the number blew the roof off. I'm sure Rose's Turn was a tough moment for all those actresses too, coming at the end of a long vocal show for Rose. |
