"Kiss Me, Kate," Published November 14, 1999 - Al Hirschfeld

Marin has been the subject of four Hirschfelds, some of which you've already seen in these posts. Though PBS may have made the sad decision to censor Marin's big nude scene in the professional taping of Passion, Al Hirschfeld had no qualms about depicting her in the way she was meant to be. I do think, however, even in his final attempt, he was never able to accurately capture the sheer size of this woman's mouth.

Marin was honored with a Sardis caricature in 2000 during her Tony-nominated run in Kiss Me, Kate, and ten years later, she returned when her husband Jason received his. At the time, they were starring as the husband-wife duo in Next to Normal. While the expanse of her mouth is certainly featured, it's still not quite what I'd expect.

At last, someone was able to do justice to Marin's signature mouth size. Like Carol Channing, Marin's mouth is the stuff of Broadway legend. Sources even say that when she was younger, she'd put her whole fist in it as a party trick.

"The day Marin passed, I got an email asking me to pay tribute. I don’t want to seem dramatic, but since Marin is a friend, I was in the midst of my own small grieving process, so I used the assignment as part of it all. This was the result. We will always think of Marin when we see sunflowers." - Justin "Squigs" Robertson

Remembering Marin Mazzie.
I wanted to honor this woman because she has given the theatre community so much and we lost her too soon. Here are just a few of the many roles that she has done from Broadway to Off-Broadway, regional productions and even the West End.

Donna Murphy in Caricature

"The King And I, "Published April 28, 1996 - Al Hirschfeld
Pictured: Lou Diamond Phillips, Donna Murphy, and cast
Depicted in both Tony-winning roles, Donna Murphy's Hirschfelds show her as both Fosca in Sondheim and Lapine's Passion (1994) and Anna Leonowens in Rodgers and Hammerstein's The King and I. Ultimately, I'm still uncertain how true-to-life the caricatures ended up being.
Donna Murphy is yet another Diva without a Sardis portrait, and that's a major crime against humanity. She has, thankfully, been the subject of quite a number of Squigs illustrations.
