Previews begin March 4, 2010, at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater, and the casting is surely inspired: Nathan Lane (presumably Gomez) and Bebe Newirth (presumably Morticia). It's difficult to image getting better than that!  :laugh:

Surely this will be next spring's hot ticket!

When I read this, I assumed it was a new thread and you posted it today, Jeff. I thought: man, you're not a bit behind, you're lightyears away. :laugh: Guess I was lightyears away .... ;D :laugh:.

Earth to Chrissi. ...  ;D  ;)  :-*

Front-Ranger:
I wonder if Gomez will be gay?

Jeff Wrangler:
I wonder who's playing Lurch, and Uncle Fester?  ;D

For years I've been wanting to add the original series on DVD to my library. Time I got off my butt and did it.

When they made the first movie, I thought--and still think--that Angelica Huston was absolutely perfect for Morticia. For a stafe musical, I'm sure on one could be better than Bebe Neuwirth.
