Hey guys!! I saw JB last night for the first time in like five months (I went with broadwayboobs...we needed our Jersey Boys fix!! haha) OMG. A year and a half after it has opened and the show is probably more fresh now than when I first saw it in November of 2005. JLY's voice has gotten amazingly better (if that is at all possible). Just had to gush...I really missed seeing those boys!! Aww, thanks for posting, Andrea! I'm thrilled to read that the production seems even more fresh/alive now than before. Someone else on the main board mentioned seeing John on Tuesday night and said that he sounded better than ever (or something to that effect). Very nice to read.
I just watched the JB SF cast on Leno. :) How exciting for them! It took me awhile to get used to seeing/hearing a cast other than our Broadway cast, but I thought they were great. If they were nervous, it's understandable (the SA cast was great on Letterman but were probably nervous as well--plus it's reportedly cold in that studio!)
Besides, the national exposure is awesome. As some of you know, I started following Broadway and its current stars more closely
after seeing Idina on David Letterman a few years ago, singing Defying Gravity. And now I'm addicted (not to Wicked, but to Broadway in general).
Speaking of tours--and sorry this is OT--I'm excited that Katie Clarke is now on tour with Light in the Piazza. I saw Elena Shaddow and she was absolutely *amazing.* But I loved Katie as well, even if her performance on the PBS broadcast wasn't flawless.
Kathryn, if you're reading this...I hope you have a great time this weekend (I know you will).
