They were all excellent and she was a master of the craft.

Certainly, I think Charity is the role that no one else at the time could have created, but I adored her as Roxie Hart, too.
Slightly off-topic, I think that the way Chita honors Gwen in her show is phenomenally touching. I cried all the way through "Nowadays."

MassOfMen on 5/17/07: "and lastly, I have no vested interest in LB. I have seen the show, I paid my money (a lot of money for that tix) I didn't watch it on a bootleg, yes I saw the flesh and bone of the people up there working their tails off. But do I really have to explain myself to you? are you the judge jury and executioner of Bwyworld.com message board? no.
But I digress, I will leave this subject as I am bored of the rebuttals anyway, and go back to "wasting my time" with the job of building buildings. We have chat boards for architects as well, ya know."
