I’d rather see Carmen Cusack and Andrew. I don’t think it’s that vocally demanding of a show for George. I’m a singer and think it’s def more of an acting role. It stays pretty baritone, no?"
Garfield might make a good Arthur in CAME

I heard that they might do it with one intermission and a pause rather than doing it in 3 acts.

Thanks for the article. I must say there is a lot of talent associated with the production.

John McWhorter’s NY Times Opinion Piece on City Center’s Encores Feb 17

As I have said I support leaving the book in tact but in doing so sometimes the length becomes an issue. But that has nothing to do with what we all have been discussing.

I have been rereading the play and the book I bought has a fair amount of pictures from the original production which included a very handsome Montgomery Clift.

The idea of Sondheim reworking his own material like Roadshow seems cool to me because he is the original author. But editing or rewriting material that is not your own to make it more relevant and acceptable for 2022 feels wrong.

I just remember reading the new artistic director’s vision statements in the program and wondering if she was on the right path. Kind of like don’t tamper with our beloved Encores.
McWhorter has also been a guest on CNN and has a compelling presence.

Sounds like Foster has put together a fun and engaging character even though there seems to be a split on the vocals.

You will be fine. The stage uses a turntable that revolves frequently. Not a bad seat in the house.

There is probably a fear of financial loss and major comping. This seems to be a theme with the non profits.

Eh, this is no worse than some of the other recent productions. If the gold standards of the past 10 years at Encores are Grand Hotel, Most Happy Fella, Superman, and Gents Prefer Blondes, this is certainly in the lower tier, but it's at least more engaging than High Button Shoes (which was badly miscast –– and a poor man's Musi
