I’m dubious about NPH— is that wrong?
Not at all. This is a hard role to do well and NPH isn’t someone I’d immediately think of for it. However, I think he knows that and is putting in a lot of effort with hopes of truly nailing it.
This video (him performing “Tear me Down” yesterday-ish) could sway you one way or the other though. It’s not a true performance but you can spy some marks of Hedwig in the rendition.
I have such love for this show that I’m hoping it’ll keep those lovely cult roots regardless of all the cash and flash of Broadway.
Of course, it all hinges on him…. could go either way but if it goes the right way then it’ll be just amazing.
