Dre, did you read the line in my review before Goodbye Love where I mentioned loving Krystal Washington and saying she was better than the one on the recording, and how I was ashamed to admit that now? It's about so much more than the singing with Mimi. You need the voice, the sass, the choreography, and especially, the vulnerability. That's something a lot of Mimis lack. Let's see...we had...Karmine, who does happen to be better than most with the vulnerability but still. Trust me, no one compares to Daphne.
Right, I really liked the sub. I was upset Frenchie was out because I was worried I'd have the same small white girl fill-in that I had once who was terrible at the solo. But we were pleased with ours. Still again...it's...pointless, and slightly unnecessary comparing anyone to the OBCers. I can't explain it. Some may surpass them vocally, or in dancing, or whatever...but...with this show...they are it. They created these roles, they worked with Jonathan, they bonded, they experienced Jonathan's death and that first performance after it. No cast I have ever seen has as much chemistry as they do, and...I mean read a bit more what people are saying on the main board about the difference between the OBC and later casts.
Wow...Dre, you're the first person to catch that! She wore leopard pants instead of the blue pants.
Kerrie, I don't like...remember seeing/recognizing Brian. I could have seen him passing, think oh he looked familiar, and moved on. I didn't even see Raul. Or Luke Perry! Now that would have been cool!
Annie, why do you feel so old?
Cat, I probably look like that when I play bass clarinet.
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
