Who Would Have Expected This From Sarah Paulson??????????????


                         I am telling you, there are more actor crossovers going on these days.  First, Celia Keenan-Bolger navigates from Musical Theater to Drama, and now the reverse is done by...Sarah Paulson?????????

                          That's right, darlings!  Sarah Paulson!  Whom I have just loved with Jessica almost ten years ago in "The Glass Menagerie", (when she played Laura, before Celia defined the role!!!!!!)  not to mention her brilliant turn as sociopath socialite Anne Gillette on 'SVU," who makes murder such a fine social occasion, and knows the outfit and wine to go with each dastardly deed!  You just gotta love her!  And now there is Lana Winters, (aka "Lana Banana") who is dramatically brilliant on AHS' "Asylum."

                            This is where I want to spend some time, dolls!  Especially when we get to episode 10, where, in a dream sequence, the inmates, in the day room, dance to Shirley Ellis' 1964 hit, "The Name Game."  You should see Jessica Lange dance!  But who knew Sarah Paulson could?  From the camera editing, the look on her face, and the way she moves in those fabulous red pumps, Sarah Paulson definitely has Musical Theater chops, and I want to see her in a musical.  The inventive chroreography here was by Zach Woodley, borrowed from "Glee."  This is a sequence that Theater Queens will just love!  Everyone gets into the act--even Pepper,, who proves herself an adept dancer!  But Sarah Paulson is a revelation, and more must be revealed of this multi-talented performer!

                             Like a musical show of her own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                              I posted it earlier, but for those who missed it, here is "The Name Game," again!  Keep your eyes on Sarah!!!!!!!!!!!!!
