[quote="Hugh"][quote="Nick"]Hi Hugh, While I loved Joanna's part ([i]Kiss Me [/i]was the name?) in the original quartet, I was surprised that I didn't miss it all that much from this song. I wonder why they chose to cut that song completely. I'd be interested to hear the reason why some day. I loved Len Cariou. Unlike George Hearn, he invoked pitty from me when I saw the play. I think I saw more sorrow in Len Cariou. After seeing some clips, I see that Depp does as well. I guess you are missing the strong professional singing voice? That in itself IS gripping.[/quote] Hi Nick! I think the reason Joanna's part was cut was because she was reprising her part in the number "Kiss Me" which was (regretably, I feel) cut from the film version. BTW, I envy you saw Len Cariou as Todd, I met the man only recently (he's the son-in-law of a friend of mine), and I found him quite charming. And yes, I am missing the strong professional singing voice, although Depp does do a very moving job.[/quote]
