Posted: 12/10/04 at 3:32pmI think that Lisa Brescia (not sure of spelling) was a great Amneris... if Maricel is from the original... then I don't. I also think the Mereb we had when I saw it. He was really good, but I don't remember his name off the top of my head.

David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

(Maricel's on the left, obviously...)
Sherie Renee Scott was the original Amneris on the CD...
"I think that Lisa Brescia (not sure of spelling) was a great Amneris... if Maricel is from the original... then I don't."
Does that mean you don't like the original Amneris?
Oops, thanks, I forgot about Mereb...

Probably OBC
However, in a concert-setting. LaToya London from American Idol would make a great Aida

Posted: 12/10/04 at 5:15pmAny cast of AIDA without Heather Headley is just a sad imitation of what the show should be.

'Also, I couldn't believe she was a good actress!'
You are kidding, jmaclover, right? Because there is no way you can be serious about that.
Aida: Heather Headley (by far)
Radames: Adam Pascal (who else)
Amneris: Felicia Finley
Zoser: John Hickok
Mereb: Couldn't care less, it has to be one of the most annoying characters EVER written.

I am not joking...
You didn't like her....
Considering she is a popstar, she did a very good job, I thought...
