Jordan Catalano said: "I’m very happy for Nicole. I think she’s much better than the actual production she’s in but she gives a phenomenal performance 7x a week."

The production is just as brilliant as is the direction.  The gift to the musical season.

Enjoyed every moment of the show. 

Who was the guy who pushed Jeffrey Richards out of the way in order to speak before they got played off??

I started crying when Nicole mentioned her Ukrainian heritage. Proud of her and our common ancestry today!

Oh get a life.."

Oh you get a life. People are allowed to have opinions. You don’t need to prowl these threads looking for people to insult.

Ah I must have been looking at a post about yesterday instead!

It’s ok Audra, u got 6 already lol. Nicole performance was ok, vocally good but her acting is a big nope. Audra will go down in history, while Nicole will be talked about for a few months and forgotten lol.

I didnt know she was of Ukrainian heritage--makes her cavorting with the fascists even more outrageous, huh?

And, no, I wont get over it. I'm not protesting outside the St James, I'm not particularly focused on it, but when discussing this woman, I think its perfectly valid to remind ourselves of who she has freely affiliated with in the past.

Maybe shes changed her ways, maybe shes just kept her views quiet given the community she now wants to be a part of, maybe shes too ignorant to realize who RFK, Russel Brand, and their ilk truly are--fascist apologists at best, but really just horrible horrible people-- or maybe the whole thing was an AI generated hoax. I dont know but I'm not going to stay quiet about the way the worst people in the world are becoming socially acceptable.

RWHC . Exactly and gonna post a closing notice tomorrow. It was not worthy of performing.
