I think it sounds fantastic!
go 'head, Sutton. She sounds amazing. So does Joel Grey.
I wonder if these clips were from a sitzprobe, or if they've recorded already?
joel grey sounds young!

this sounds awful. Dear God why would anyone want to see this show. Ugh..i am being serious. really? you are going to pay 125 bucks to see this? ugh...
Just listening to this makes me want to hurt a small animal.
It sounds great, I just don't think it will LOOK great. Joel is quite old and I don't think Sutton is hot enough for Reno
It sounds amazing! It does sound like a sitzprobe though, as opposed to the actual recording.
Still not sold on Sutton as Reno, but I'll see it just for the dancing. It's not often enough we get tap on Broadway these days!
I loved it.

As opposed to Patti Lupone?
^I was just about to ask that. Yes, it will be a Roundabout production so it will be very meh, but as proven by the last revival of Ragtime, Derek McLane can sure design scenics.

Sutton Foster sounds like a 15 year old girl. She can sing very well, but it doesn't have that sultry sound Reno needs. Speaking as a gay man Patti Lupone was hot as Reno and I think Foster is too.
I think the people complaining about Foster not being sultry enough forget that Reno was originally played by Ethel Merman who, though wonderful in many respects, was anything but sultry. Foster sounds great in the clip, and I'm sure she'll manage the role fine.

Or Ethel Merman?
I actually thought Ethel Merman was looking pretty good in Anything Goes.

patti was kinda hot!
I completely agree that Sutton is very pretty, but there's a difference between being pretty and spunky and what you see Patti PuLone exuding in that DANCE Magazine cover. Maybe Sutton will do well, but I think it will be a very different interpretation of the character then we are used to.
How about Elaine Paige?

There's something about Lupone's wig that I like better.
I can see Patti's titty.

She sure does enjoy showing the girls off.
