Chita Rivera dressed as a man singing “La Cage Aux Folles” in the craziest arrangement you can imagine with the choreography from “Where You Are”.

Tenor High D.
Today I hit the D above High C in “The Bells of Notre Dame”.
There are two recordings of Follies closing night in L.A.
You don’t pay attention, do you?

That gif is awesome!
I made it.
Please!
I don’t know if a recording of Marin exists but I’m pretty sure one of Christine exists as she did it at Melody Top and a handful of soundboards are known to exist from productions there. Unfortunately the person that holds info on the existence of said soundboards is not very willing to share.
Hope this helps.

Hahaha, that’s fair. I shall judge not.
Plus, he met Diahann Carroll who met Tony.

Ohhh geez.
You’re not allowed to comment as you are already betrothed.

Actually i think that was yesterday. But I only fanmailed today. Lol. But probably.
You’re going crazy.
I’m happy to live in a world where Matthew Bomer is gay.

What is anon smoking.
Probably the same you were smoking a few hours ago.
I do have high expectations but I was never offered a kind gesture by a potential mate.
At first I was “What?” then I was “Oh!”.
Answer is: Marion Cotillard is perfect.


Because I’m mean.

Sorry. Diahann Carroll. Who for a long time was my Norma of choice (mostly because I preferred the single-disc recording of the score).
See? We still are the same person! I just got a bootleg with her (no video though)!
AH! I’m not milky white but I’m very white.
I mean, I prefer the old people.

I’m running out of ideas. Carol Burnett?

Well, by the logic that you and I are more or less the same person, the answer would be Petula Clark.
Think Tony Perkins. Think Tony award. Think TV.

Pia Douwes?
Nope. I’m talking of someone far more well-known than Pia Douwes (but nowadays no one remembers her).

Am I wrong? Or do you not count Platinum in this question?
Not counting Platinum (I’m excited for a video of Alexis promoting it that will probably arrive tomorrow). I think you’re the only one who will guess it

Betty Buckley. Best one IMO.
Nope.
Who is my favorite Norma Desmond, apart from Gloria Swanson?

thank the heavens i never had to listen to that!! he sounds so…. dopey?
Understudying one of the leads in Follies is definitely not an easy task.

That’s an incredibly clear recording.
It is. These days audios taped from the audience are pretty much amazing and soundboards sound like cast recordings.
Joseph Kolinski (Danny Burstein’s understudy) sings “The Right Girl”.
Sarah Ramirez as Dolly Levi. Am I right?
Maybe after she’s done playing the Witch in the Into the Woods revival?
MURPHETTES! ATTACK!^^
Oh would you relax? Isn’t Donna scheduled to film episodes for that horrible Jersey Shore rip off sitcom that she’s unfortunately attached to?
Her part is even smaller than Christian Borle’s in Smash, so there won’t be any problems with that. And it’s not a sitcom, it’s a legal drama.
No need to attack over something that is obviously incorrect, Jo. I don’t know what planet they’re living on.
A very delusional one. But maybe he meant after she’s done understudying The Witch.
For real. The part is Donna’s, get over it folks. They’re not going to kick her out for the transfer.
They’d have to face a very rabid angry mob if they did.
