If done well, it could be quite funny and entertaining. If its going to be the typical Bruce Vallach written crap, well then, I'll stay away.

What I do find interesting is that it conceived by the producers of the upcoming First Wives Club musical. Bernadette has been suggested several times for a role in the musical and some on the various theater boards (who claim they know these thing) say Bernadette is definitely being courted for the production. Could this be a way of launching the musical?



"Particular mention must be made of Bernadette Peters, who turns up briefly in a sort of sparkly Glinda the Good costume. She's the reluctant muse sent to help Alice with her writing. The muse is dressed like Oz, sounds like Queens and behaves like a bored student adviser." Alice Film Review, The New York Times, December 25, 1990

"I'm one star away from Dolly Parton ... and Raymond Massey is between us. I hope we don't suffocate him." Bernadette Peters receiving her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, April 24, 1987

Oh great, a show that's all about bitchy, middle-aged, rich, heterosexual women--one of my least favorite groups in the world.

When I saw the announcement, I cheered. I am so glad she dropped out of that trashy sounding thing.
