| But I think you are overlooking Lost in Yonkers for which Mercedes Ruhl won a Tony for her performance. Jane Kaczmarek is a Yale MFA graduate in the same graudating class with Kate Burton, Frances McDormand, and Angela Bassett I believe. Many people think of her as a more comedic actress because of her success in tv's Malcolm in the Middle. But when she replaced Ms Ruhl, the NY Times wrote a half page article with large photo of Ms. Kaczmarek about how often the replacements give a better performance that the original actor and make the play worth seeing again. Kaczmarek has gone on to play many other lead dramatic roles in such heavy-hitters as Long Day's Journey into Night, etc. |
