#Carolyn Maitland

[fandomandmore]

Having just heard Carolyn Maitland's I Miss the Mountains... I'm gutted I wasn't able to see it in person.

(She did get the lyrics slightly wrong. But unless you know the song inside out, there is no way you'd be able to tell.)

The final two "I miss my life" - perfection tbh.

(I'm not ready to say goodbye to this show again next week 😭)

CAROLYN MAITLAND ON FOR DIANA TODAY CAROLYN MAITLAND ON FOR DIANA TODAY

[augustusaugustus]

9.58 Fall Out

In which the great tragedy of John’s departure is announced and Frank’s really feeling Ted’s loss.

MONROE: It’s a good career move for you, John. MAITLAND: Yeah. It’s going to be interesting seeing how teaching and study combine. MONROE: A damn sight better than study and shift work. MAITLAND: That’s for sure. Still. Gonna miss the action, Sir. MONROE: I could do with rather less action myself.

Please give us your cover run thoughts! I'm so interested to hear how their portrayals differ.

i was surprised at how different they were honestly!! not in a bad way at all either

carolyn maitland (u/s diana): i really did love caissie levy but i LOVED this diana. her voice was less show-y but it works better for this character (that was one of the critiques i had of caissie), and she brought a sensitivity to diana that reminded me so much of marin mazzie. also i swear i'm not calling caissie old lol but carolyn just appeared younger for some reason? which i feel like is a fairly important aspect of dan/diana, is that they were so young when they got married and gabe was born. you kind of get the feeling like she's stuck in that time period with her gentleness and youthfulness. i think she also did the humor a little bit better!

ben morris (u/s dan): his strongest song was why stay/i promise and it felt like his entire portrayal was leading up to/based on that one song (vs i feel like og dan's "core" song was i've been, and og west end's dan was how could i ever forget). i can't say that i loved his dan, but i will say that it was very unique. it felt like the entire time he was so upset with himself for not leaving. sunk cost fallacy etc. like he didn't really know why he was doing what he was doing other than feeling like he was supposed to do it because That's What A Good Man Does. probably the least sympathetic dan to me, but it made diana leaving at the end make a lot more sense for both of them and not just a diana centric decision.

lucy munden (u/s natalie): honestly i could easily see her replacing eleanor if she ever decides to leave! she brought a sensitivity and insecurity to natalie that reminded me a lot of emma hunt (us tour). it really helped with the "natalie is holding this family together in more ways than one" narrative. and her singing voice has a groundedness to it that i REALLY like for natalie.

joshua gannon (u/s gabe): this dan worked well with this gabe which was the angriest i've seen. felt a lot like an extension of diana's frustration and mania more than her grief. he didn't seem very comfortable in the role though so not much else was different

joshua gannon (u/s henry): i liked him as henry more than i did as gabe! a little bit less douche-y in my opinion, i would be happy with him becoming principle henry someday. but i don't know if my adam chanler beret glasses are glued to my face but i just am MISSING something from these henry's.

no cover for fine/madden!

London revival

[fandomandmore]

Carolyn's You Don't Know (Reprise)... is definitely less angry and more resigned than Caissie's at the beginning...

The anger definitely builds though...

It's so interesting to hear a different take on the same role! I love covers and standbys. They're the literal backbone of theatre. They deserve wayyy more credit for what they do.

carolyn maitland and ben heathcore are so hilarious together! i’m PRAYING someone gets an audio of the cover run, cause their dan and diana are gonna be so great

[augustusaugustus]

I love 'Minefield'. The absolute horror for Maitland in cocking up PACE requirements when his entire self-perception is based on knowing the rules and following them to the letter. And the irony of Monroe, of all people, having to tell him that it's only human to occasionally get things wrong.

All the STJ feels.

If it was the cover run from this year you saw then it wasn’t the same as the Donmar cover cast. Carolyn Maitland is still understudy Diana but understudy Dan/Doctors is now Ben Heathcote not Ben Morris, understudy Natalie is now Lizzy Parker not Lucy Munden, and understudy Gabe/Henry is now Jake Reynolds not Joshua Gannon. They have very similar names to the Donmar understudy cast though it’s kinda crazy

omg ya wait you’re right lol that’s what i get for answering asks on 4 hours of sleep
