Guiding Light Alum Bonnie Dennison Understudying Scarlett Johannson on Broadway?!





It looks like all that staring into space she did as Guiding Light's Daisy didn't do much to hurt Bonnie Dennison's career. First the actress booked a guest spot on Ugly Betty, now she's serving as the understudy for Scarlett Johannson in Broadway's A View From The Bridge. Jesus take the script.

Congratulations to Bonnie!!  It's well deserved!

Jamey,

You've said it yourself about some of your favorite actors:  they start out rough but master their craft on a soap.

If she's mastered her craft, then she's done a lot of work on herself since September '09 to now! She would have to get a lot better to be able to slip into understudy to a movie star on Broadway, because what I saw on GL doesn't convince me she has the chops for the legitimate stage.

All I can say is WTF? She hasn't gotten any better. I saw her little stint on Ugly Betty and she was just as bad as she was on Guiding Light. To be honest, I'm not much of a Scarlett Johansson fan.

 LOL Jamey that's funny. I agree that she was bad on GL, remember her constantly pausing and saying "um" so she could remember her next line?
 But I thought she got better the last year on the show, well when Daisy was paired with James Spaulding, she seemed more comfortable in the role. But it is nice to see her working since leaving GL. Too bad we don't see more of the actors on something else since the cancellation.

Wow Congrats to Bonnie !

Ya know, I assumed she would be more of an understudy to Stephanie Courtney (Flo, the Progressive Car Insurance lady) than  Scarlett Johannson .

I actually liked Bonnie on GL (go ahead and shoot me).

I didn't mind her that much either on GL, californiaguy. Not as much as some people.
