Director of musical <<The Little Shop of Horrors>> Dick Scanlan talks about Jake:
JAKE GYLLENHAAL: Thehardest working person in the room. Incredibly smart, and he approached the creation of his character with enormous integrity.But, we weren't sure how well he could sing because, well, prior tolast week, who'd heard JakeGyllenhaal sing save for a comic version of "And I'm TellingYou I'm Not Going" he performed on "Saturday Night Live"in 2007? So, it's the second day of rehearsal, and Patti and I are working with the Urchins, because we had two days with just them toget their vocals and staging taught. I knew that Jake was coachingwith Jeanine, but I was taken by surprise when the two of them burstinto our rehearsal studio-remember, at this point, Jake and I had notmet. Jeanine sat down at the piano and told him "Start at thetop and sing your way through the score." Seymour's first vocalis an extended (and thrilling passage) in "Skid Row." Bythe time Jake was halfway through it, we were agog: HE CAN REALLY SING. LIKE REALLY. I sang "Git It" with him, and I couldfeel how solid he was on his vocals as he wailed his harmonies,hitting stratospherically high notes with precision and passion. Theresponse I had that day is same response audiences had: thrilling.
