Such an awesome musical, but it wasn't the cast I saw, but a great soundtrack! . I loved this musical when I went to see it in late March of 2006. But unforutunately the only reason why I didn't give this 5 stars is because this soundtrack doesn't have exactly what I saw on stage, and I loved that better. This is an awesome soundtrack though. When I went to see this musical, only 3 members of the original cast were still on the play: Norbert Leo Butz as "Freddy," Joanna Gleason as "Muriel," and Gregory Jbara as "Andre." But, that night I went to see it, Gergory Jbara was substituted by Dennis Parlato, so I really only saw 2 original cast members. Normally when you see a musical on stage or on film for the first time, you don't really get the "entire" taste of the music part because you have to concentrate on the story, the characters, and what's going on and what you're looking at. Sometimes its even hard to remember the music you heard until you listen to it again without visual aid, unless the performance of the songs were very memorable. And the song that really stuck out here was Norbert's performance of "Great Big Stuff." His physical comedy and every single word rang with crass wit that was over the top and just begs you for more. Norbert Leo Butz plays "Freddy Benson" by the way. When I saw the play, Johnathan Pryce was playing the part of "Laurence Jameson." And Pryce is an actual British person, which kind of made his role more believable. His voice really fit the part. John Lithgow at times appears to lose his accent in the soundtrack. John Lithgow isn't bad for the part though, and when he has to impersonate an Austrian Doctor, he does an over the top job. Dennis Parlato (Jbara's substitute) I believe did a better job at playing a Frenchman. His accent seemed less forced than Gregory's here. Gregory brings a much more "snooty" personality to Andre than Dennis did. Maybe that's what was originally intended perhaps. Mylinda Hall played Jolene Oaks when I saw it, and in my opinion she did a far more fantastic job than Sara Gettelfinger. Sara sounds a bit too "mature" and a little older too. Jolene is supposed to be young, dumb, and full of fun! Now Sherie Rene Scott does a fantastic job at playing "Christine Colgate" and better than Rachel York, the girl I saw. Rachel York was good, but Sherie does a good job at being a ditz, like Christine is supposed to be. She hits those high notes with ease and gives a nice flair of innocence in her role. "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" is a great musical adaptation to a movie, and I believe that you can buy the soundtrack before seeing the play but vice versa. However, if you are listening to the soundtrack before seeing the play, you better take "A Message from John Lithgow" very seriously because you won't enjoy the play as much if you see it after listening to the soundtrack. So do what John Lithgow says!
