Patton Oswalt:Why does she hate him?


I heard she tried to get him fired from "Lips Together Teeth Apart", supposedly because she hated his work in rehearsals, and when director Joe Mantello wouldn't fire him she walked away and forced the cancellation of the whole Broadway revival.Is that true?????

I am SO proud that no one answered you! Faith in imdb posters partly restored!!

well it's pretty widely known that it happened like that.Megan has never explained why, but she clearly left because Mantello wouldn't fire Oswalt. It's on all of the theatre websites.

Not sure, might have something to do with the fact Oswalt had quite the learning curve in becoming a good actor. He was getting jobs when he was still awful, and he says this himself.
