What a long strange trip it has been, but I can tell you all there is NOTHING better than seeing a dear friend blossom into the performer you knew them to be all along. Here are some amazing words about my sister from another mister, Laura Beth Wells, from her co-star Patrick Page (aka The Green Goblin) via Playbill.com:Tom Nondorf:
I enjoy the moments of humanity that you bring to Norman, like when you're doing a little waltz with Laura Beth Wells. You both seem kind of lost in each other. If there's any moment that we can look back at and feel the pain that Norman later feels, that's it.
Patrick Page:
Oh, absolutely. That's a real key moment. That's a moment that's gone through all kinds of evolutions as we've done the show that we've really wanted to hold onto. In a way, what I was talking about with a musical, you've got very little time to communicate an enormous amount. So, having them there together looking into each other's eyes hopefully tells the audience a lot about what they mean to each other. That's exactly the kind of thing that I love doing. I love working with Laura Beth. It's so funny, she's been in the business for a long time, and she's this extraordinary actress and singer. This is her first Broadway show. When she first came to the city, she was ushering in The Lion King at the New Amsterdam Theatre. She's really come all that way, and I love being with someone who not only is so gifted and so giving on stage, but who really understands how blessed we are to be doing this for a living.
Catch her on The Late Show with David Letterman on March 1st shaking that deserving Broadway jelly with her Spidey-Mates!!
