So as I was reading this I was struck by the comment made by Sandy:
"Ä you could make Sandy just really pouty and wanting to make Danny apologize in every scene, but Kathleen Marshall really has this vision of both of them coming into each [scene], and each time they see each other, remembering what they had in the summer and wanting it to work so badly, until something else comes in the way. It's a deeper side of it. It is a new discovery in the role of Sandy and her relationship with Danny, which is exciting."
Isn't what she's describing a simple definition for good acting? Finding the deeper meaning to what is written on the page. I didn't watch the reality show, but was hoping that they would find someone with merit to take to the stage. Unfortunately it seems like they have found yet another person who can fake it well. Faking it should not get you to Broadway. But I guess the American public who put her there disagree.
