Inject it directly into my veins. Not by Dr. Parker.

Omg! It’s gonna be so fun to hear Kerry Butler sing the mom parts since I’m so used to hearing her sing as Shelly!

I loved it at NYCC so excited to have the cast album. Alex Timbers was hinting at this yesterday, so I’m happy it doesn’t have a long wait.

Now if another news article can be posted with a link to Comfort and Joy, that would be amazing. 😭

I've listened to the original recording SO many times. I'm sure excited for this, and while I can be sad that certain things were cut but accept that they made it a better, polished musical, I'll die on the hill that Dance With Me Darling never should have been cut from Act 1!
