Just as I was saying that tv stars don't have the stamina for Broadway, Jeremy Piven has bowed out of Speed the Plow due to health reasons. He looked tired on the night we saw him, and frankly, both William Macy and Norbert Butz are bigger Broadway names, I would be interested to see how either one does it.
But it speaks to my argument, that Broadway acting is an entirely different animal from tv acting (which may be a different animal again from film acting, that I don't feel qualified to speculate upon) But I can see, because I've seen enough of them, that marquee movie names don't necessarily make good stage actors at all. They can be, of course, but it isn't mandatory.
And now Jeremy Piven agrees with me too. :)
