HIGH SPIRITS at Encores! Feb 16 2026, 12:43:00 PM
Katrina's current vocal coach is Joan Lader,who also works with Patti LuPone and Kristin Chenoweth. I remember her mentioning it in an interview when Company returned after the shutdown. She really does sound great.

Trump Takeover of the country Feb 6 2026, 06:10:56 PM
Trump seems to be extremely jealous of First POTUS George Washington,who has many things named after him,including a state and the nation;s capital. Because he was,ya know,the FIRST! Trump needs to sit down and shut up,though I know he won't. Glad Schumer said no.

WiCkEDrOcKS said: "Well, I enjoyed it for the most part. It’s the archetypalEncores! show - creaky and oddball,but endearingnonetheless. As with most Encores! productions, I found the pacing / comedic timing was a bit scattershot and the sound design was wonky (the orchestra sounded somewhat dull and canned). Hopefully they’ll tweak those things as the run continues. Andrea Martin did go up on her lines a couple of times, but that’s the nature of these productions,

Universal's WICKED Film - News & Discussion Thread Oct 28 2025, 10:39:37 AM
QueenAlice said: "The film likely begins press screenings soon. The studio clearly decided it would be better to announce the news themselves rather than it be leaked from people watching the credits. I suspect they will also name who plays Dorothy soon too. Even if the actor who plays the part isn't seen fully. The person has to be named in the credits."
Dorothy is played by Alicia Weir,who starred in the Matilda musical film adaptation. Her face is never shown,

Whatever happened to Katrina Lenk? Oct 19 2025, 12:09:25 PM
quizking101 said: "She hasn’t been gone that long. COMPANY only closed in July of 2022 (which, granted, seems like forever ago). They just announced her doing “High Spirits” at Encores next year."
Yesss! Hopefully she has a lead. Wished I lived in NYC so I could see it.

Whatever happened to Katrina Lenk? Oct 19 2025, 09:28:02 AM
She's extremely talented and great to watch. I know she's kind of a specific type of performer,but I'd love to see her back on Broadway. I know she's done a few readings here and there. Superb performer.

Gavin Creel has passed away Sep 15 2025, 06:56:37 PM
I can't believe it will be one year since Gavin passed,on Sept.30. I miss him so much. He left such a big hole on Broadway...and in the world. Such a gorgeous voice.

Erivo will star in Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl Aug 2 2025, 04:07:30 PM
Thank you SO MUCH for your videos,TheaterMonkey!!! I felt like I was really there watching Adam Lambert,Cynthia Erivo,Philippa Soo,Raul Esparza,and the company perform right in front of me--all the way here in my little home in the south! Cynthia's Gethsemane moved me to tears. I sang along a little with some of the other songs. I wish so badly this could be released as an album. I'd buy it in a minute.

Katrina Lenk in Kiss of the Spider Woman. Yes,I know she's 50,but Chita was 62 when she played Aurora. Katrina has a background in dance and she has a great sultry-sounding voice that she uses when a part or song calls for it.

I love Idina; I've seen her in concert twice. But I kind of wish she would change voice coaches to Joan Lader--who coaches Kristin,Patti LuPone, Sutton Foster, Katrina Lenk,and many others that I can't think of off the top of my head. Lenk began working with her before Company returned to the stage after the shutdown,and her vocals had improved.

NYT: Gene Hackman, Hollywood’s Consummate Everyman, Dies at 95 Feb 27 2025, 03:39:53 PM
BorisTomashevsky said: "This could also have been a decision to end life together. It’s quite common. One partner may be close to passing away naturally, and the younger/healthy partner can’t bear the thought of living without them, so they simply call the shots and decide the timing themselves."
I doubt this happened. One of their dogs died as well,so why would they kill the dog too?

Fan mail: who have you heard back from? Feb 15 2025, 09:40:25 PM
I wrote a letter to Katrina Lenk when she starred in the Company revival,in late 2021. I finally received an autographed photo 5 months later. I don't think there was stage dooring at that time,because Broadway had recently reopened from the Covid shutdown,so I imagine she might've been getting more written mail than usual. It probably took her a long time to respond. I was very grateful,as she is one of my favorite performers.
