Everyone yukking it up at Rep. Lauren Boebert j'ing some guy o at a local production of a Beetlejuice musical. But what if it was a production of Glengarry Glen Ross? Then it's not so funny, right? Or maybe just as funny in a different way. Maybe Bobby Cannavale is playing Ricky Roma. He'd be good. - ThreadSky

I'm sure the performers prefer heavy petting in the audience to some other weird shit people have been doing lately: throwing phones and wheels of cheese at them.

A little jean jamming never concussed anyone, to my knowledge

many people are saying Richard Kind as Shelley Levine.

davidjroth.bsky.social•535 days ago

I don't see why not. Maybe we plug Corey Stoll in there as Moss. See who salutes.

Funniest part of this tweet is “j’ing some guy o”

Thank you, it was the part I was proudest of. Although I do think that's good casting.

Sutton Foster could play Bobert in a musical about January 6th

Ok wait, but seriously though, if they can make hamilton, I'm sure i can write the worst musical ever made about J6

Patti Lupone is Ginni Thomas

lauren’s gonna turn it into JO6

texaninnyc.bsky.social•534 days ago

Counterpoint: Laura Osnes looks exactly like her and there's a decent chance she could play someone at Jan 6 from experience.

tacoenthusiast.swifties.social•535 days ago

Hugh Jackman? Lauren Boebert jacked the man.

scratchbomb.bsky.social•535 days ago

looking to your left during a performance of A Doll’s House and Boebert is just going jackhammer mode to Ibsen

Richard Kind as Shelley Levene

nobody would have noticed if it was that play where the audience had to attend naked

sounds like closing is the one thing she doesn't do

flyingwalruss.bsky.social•535 days ago

He’d crush. That’s the type of casting that justifies an entire production

jasondashbailey.bsky.social•535 days ago

He did it! I saw it! It was good! https://www.vulture.com/2012/08/bobby-cannavale-talks-to-himself-on-the-street.html

davidjroth.bsky.social•535 days ago

This makes me feel a bit better, but I am busy casting the rest of the production now. Maybe see how Sterling K. Brown plays about playing Williamson.

eastwes.bsky.social•535 days ago

Still the dream Glengarry production to beat, in my opinion.

contrail.bsky.social•535 days ago

John Hamm could crush the Alec Baldwin part (I know that's not part of the original play, but I feel like they have to have it in there now)

coffinzone.bsky.social•534 days ago

Counteroffer: Clancy Brown

uncleicon.bsky.social•535 days ago

They should just add it the way they added "Hopelessly Devoted..." to the Grease stage rights.

dogsandsobriety.bsky.social•535 days ago

Hear me out: Hellraiser's Pinhead in the Blake (Alec Baldwin) role.

basquiatball.bsky.social•535 days ago

Who plays Shelley Levene? Paul Giamatti? Seems kind of on the nose. What about Norman Reedus?

jasondashbailey.bsky.social•535 days ago

brb, gotta get Sam Rockwell's agent on the horn about playing Moss

revcurry.bsky.social•535 days ago

Are they upset she wasn’t playing with her own gun?

robertsilverman.bsky.social•535 days ago

Which Mamet play would be the best to get a little hand action? Most people would assume it's Sexual Perversity in Chicago. But true theater lovers know it's Speed-the-Plow, right when Bobby Gould is in the middle of a keyed-up monologue

orleancooper.bsky.social•534 days ago

It's The Water Engine, not because of anything to do with the play, only because the title sounds like a old timey dick joke.

robertsilverman.bsky.social•534 days ago

Good point

I was going to alter this line as a joke, but honestly it kinda works for the Boebert situation in its original form:

too distracted by the change in casting from Pacino to Cannavale as Roma and Lemmon to Pacino as Levene, so we’re heading to TKTS for the Spring Awakening VIBE SHIFT😫

I saw VEEP’s Dave Pasquesi play Ricky Roma at the Steppenwolf when I was a teen. Great performance. Didn’t get a handjob, as far as I can remember.

david thanks for posting this, i got to once again go down the wikipedia journey that ends with me learning that the director of the movie also directed the 50 shades sequels. i've done this multiple times but somehow always manage to eternal sunshine the memory away

pizzalawyer420.bsky.social•535 days ago

Anne Coates, editor of Lawrence of Arabia, cut the first 50 shades of gray

davidjroth.bsky.social•535 days ago

Oh it was James Foley? He also did the Mark Wahlberg/Reese Witherspoon/William Petersen classic Fear.

To his credit, he also directed After Dark, My Sweet, which captures Jim Thompson's lurid scuzziness better than any other adaptations of his work.

windiermegatons.bsky.social•534 days ago

My all time favorite one of these is that Janusz Kaminski was the DP for the Vanilla Ice vehicle “Cool As Ice” in 1991 and two years later he did “Schindler’s List.” Then his next movie after that was “Little Giants”
