If you missed it, Eddie George was the lead in the Broadway run of ‘Chicago’ for 7 weeks in New York City. George made a great Billy Flynn, so much so that the producers asked Eddie to take the show to Los Angeles where he will be joined by none other than Brandy. Eddie George on his new co-star via TMZ:
“Sharing the stage with Brandy!? Are you kidding me? I’m more excited about that than anything else. I’ve followed her through her music and acting career – she killed it in New York as Roxie (last year).”
It’s quite the combination that could draw some interesting crowds that probably wouldn’t normally see a play. Like me, the last time I saw was a play was in high school and for good reason, but if this came to my city, I would be all over it.
If you’re in the L.A. area the show will be at the Pantages Theatre starting in April.
