Debbie Does (Not) Do Xanadu
Universal Pictures/ZUMAPress.com
And then it hit me: Xanadu the musical is opening on Broadway in May. Tony Roberts is stepping into Gene Kelly's soft shoes, which is beyond awesome casting. Kerry Butler, a youngling Broadway vet, is playing Kira. And that's fine. But wouldn't it have been just awesome if Debbie Gibson tap-danced and rollerskated onto the stage instead?
Yes, I know it's "Deborah." Whatever.Lo and behold, I totally ran into Deborah a few hours later. No really, I did. So, I told her what I was thinking. "It came up," she said, with this reluctant smile, the kind of smile that says I-want-to-say-more-but-I-can't say more, shaking me off as I asked for more.
"It came up...for a minute...and then it went away. That's all I can say."
And all I can say is that it's too bad.
Okay. Need to go dance around the apartment to "Magic."
