Sorry about the stumper.

Anthony Rapp (Mark) was in A Beautiful Mind, and the next year, Taye Diggs (Benny) was in Chicago.

For another question... who was the only person to star in both the movie version and off-Broadway production of Little Shop of Horrors?

Well, I LOVE musicals, but am too straight I think to be any good at musucal trivia.

I'll guess Levi Stubbs as the voice of Audrey II

Ellen Greene.

(where's Suddenly Seymour, I wonder?)

I've got a new question ready, so:

The Broadway revival of You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown replaced a character from the original off-Broadway production with a different "Peanuts" character. Who was added, and who was cut?

Wasn't Peppermint Patty in the original production in the 60's? I think she was replaced with Sally for the revival.

Actually it was "Patty", one of the original "Peanuts" characters (I don't think Peppermint Patty existed yet when the off-Broadway production opened), but since you were nice enough not to complain about my posting this question without consulting anybody, I'll say: "Close Enough!"

No problem BRM. And I always seem to think that a reference to Patty is Peppermint Patty. Maybe I need to pick up that new Peanuts collection that was just released.

Who threw a dinner party that included such delicacies as pickled python, peppered sheep spleen, and owl eggs?

I'd just like to go off on a tangent at this moment and remind everyone that it is still not too late to order The Complete Peanuts vol. 1 from Fantagraphics. The book will reprint the first few years of the Peanuts stips, most of which have not been reprinted since hte original newspaper publication 50+ years ago.

First, in the Peanuts comic strip there was a character named Patty (Along with Violet). Patty disappeared. Then came Peppermint Patty, who seemed to be from a different neighborhood than the original gang. She headed a rival football team.

As for the dinner party question, I believe Mame threw such a dinner party.

Go away, Mom! It's one o'clock in the morning here! It's too early to be answering questions! Ellen Greene. And why did you have to bring up that show? Don't you know I'm still bitter about not being cast as Seymour last month because I'm "too tall"?

No, Ma! It's 2 a.m. I'm trying to sleep! Sally replaced Patty (and didn't Kristin Chenowith do an amazing job? She and Anthony Rapp are such nice people to interview for stories. But original writer Clark Gesner wasn't too happy with the swtich. He didn't see the point.)

OK, OK, I'm up now. What? Owl eggs? I have no earthly idea!

Rats!

You do need some sleep Seymour. Lightning Lad answered the "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" question and asked one of his own. I have given an answer and am waiting for confirmation

OH I just got the reference to LL's question.

At least they gave you a reason, however lame. I tried out for a local production of Little Shop Of Horrors a couple of years ago, and they couldn't even be bothered to leave a message on my answering machine to tell me I hadn't been cast.

Hmm... A musical question.

What is the musical that these lines of song come from?

This is a group I don't normally do theater with because they're out of the way, but I would have done it for Seymour. My dad and uncle do theater there, though.

They didn't call me either. When they didn't get a Mr. Mushnik they liked, they called up my uncle and asked him to do it (a practice I frown upon -- they should cast from those who audition -- I'm bitter about that from a different show smile ), They told him they liked my audition, but I was too tall. Of course, they could have been lying since he was family, and they didn't want to tell him they thought I sucked. smile

That's it. I figured it would be gotten quickly as my musicals knowledge is pretty limited

Here's a recent musical tied to the past.

The great "Ragtime" lyricist Lynn Ahrens also did great things with words for which '70s TV pop culture phenomenon?
