Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tyne Daly (Broadway revival, 1989 - 42) Patti LuPone (Broadway revival, 2008 - 59) Tovah Feldshuh (Bristol, 2011 - 63) Bernadette Peters (Broadway revival, 2003 - 63) Carolee Carmello (Sacramento, 2018 - 56) Julia Murney (Cape Playhouse, 2017 - 48) (no audio) Beth Leavel (The Muny, 2018 - 63) Betty Buckley (Paper Mill Playhouse - 45)
The most coveted role for (non-soprano) women in musical theatre canon. Mama Rose, the ultimate stage mother, was originated by Ethel Merman in 1959. With Ethel's foghorn belt still audible in the distance even today, Rose has some of the most iconic solo numbers to ever grace musical theatre canon. Everyone has their personal favorite Rose, and everyone will fight to the death for her.
Other Rose's include: Angela Lansbury (Broadway, 1979), Imelda Staunton (West End, 2015), Bette Midler (Film, 1993), and Rosalind Russel (1962).

General MacNamara vs Mama Rose
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda (click names for full propaganda pages and other actors)
General MacNamara: He has the most glorious hair ever in Black Friday. Also he makes puns and his first ever spoken line is to call the main character of the musical as "son." He's also got a husband yet to appear in canon.
Mama Rose: They think they’re fuckable. Also you can’t have a milf poll without her.

A comparison I’ve recently thought of
The hellers interpretation of John is this song:
Ie. An obsessive, abusive parent who lives through their kid
The CORRECT interpretation of John is this song:
Ie. A flawed but caring parent who sacrificed everything for their kid. Even their own life

Storytime
Storytelling is an art I’ve yet to truly master, which seems odd because I teach it.  But in a way, it’s not.  No one is a master at every story they tell.  we’ve all been there That’s both the beauty and the hell of it.  Just when you think you know exactly what you’re doing, something great pops into your brain that you can’t make work despite all of your knowledge and experience. My thing…

Poor Ethel Merman can't catch a break. I guess you can't buck a jail warden either, Ethel.
BROADWAY DIVAS SUPERLATIVES: Mother Play
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are countless mothers who grace the Broadway stage each season. Here are just a few who get to be both mothers* and fantastic characters in their own right.
*I'm not entirely sure what this slang means, but it's objectively funniest that I continue to live in ignorant bliss, even with the real chance I'm using it incorrectly.
