Speaking of "Pippin"
Pippin doesn't exactly qualify as a "Lost" musical, but it's not done on a hyper-regular schedule either. So I do find it kind of coincidental that no less than a week after I mention (and post a photo of) original Fastrada Leland Palmer, now Linda Posner, in the blog, Playbill.com announces a summer production of Pippin on Long Island. The kicker is the cast: B.D. Wong playing the Leading Player and Karen Ziemba playing Fastrada!
Karen Ziemba as Fastrada seems like a V8 moment...of course! She'd be perfect.
Wong as Leading Player? That's some interesting casting.
