'This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen.'
Of course, it's a direct homage to the iconic Broadway musical poster, which is a version of an illustration made for the original San Francisco run of the show.And Cynthia sure saw that edited version, as she posted it on to her Instagram story along with the words,"This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen, equal to that awful AI of us fighting, equal to people posing the question, 'is your ***** green.'""None of this is funny. None of this is cute.
It degrades us. The original poster is an ILLUSTRATION. I am a real life human being, who chose to look right down the barrel of the camera to you, the viewer ...because, without words we communicate with our eyes," she continued."Our poster is an homage not an imitation, to edit my face and hide my eyes is to erase me. And that is deeply hurtful," the Emmy, Tony, and Grammy winner noted.
