yeah, i thought she made a good point about the show finding its audience, and how the new casting was looking good!
i hope this will run for awhile longer- it really deserves to!
Felicia...what a trooper!

I saw this show twice - and had fun each time! I wish this show was selling a bit better as it deserves to have a longer run than I feel it is going to have.

Felicia is amazing, what a talent! what a lady! you lucky New Yorkers should organize going to see the show together one night. It's just so much fun. I'd love to live in NYC and bring my dates or friends to see the show, in fact I treated 2 loved friends of mines to see this show, my best friend, who is a shrink and he is sometimes a little snob-ish had a ball.

I took my friend to see it last week. At first I wasn't sure if she would enjoy it, but I was wrong. She loved it!
EDIT: I also would love to see her have a bigger part, she'll do amazing.

I've already expressed my love for Felicia so much, but here's another opportunity: she's amazing!

Felicia has an awesome voice and is a real talent. Too bad she doesn't get to do too much in this show, but hopefully in the future she'll have a large part in something.
...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

Knock-knock. Tina's found her character!

yeah, I wish Felicia had a bigger part, but she really stops the show, and no matter how small her part may seem, she makes the show

^that is actually TOTALLY true, and its not even my felicia bias speaking 
litterallly, I have NEVER heard an audience laugh collectivelly as loud as I heard them laugh when she did a Note From Linda and Let Me Come Home. I can honestly say, and I think I speak for many others well, that I was like *THIS* close to getting up out of my seat and giving her a standing ovation for Let Me Come Home. Thats how much she rocks that part. hehe. Honestly, anyone else I think would be SOOOO dull and boring in comparison to la Felicia.

I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

I couldn't stop laughing even when she went back down. I was hysterical.

Her bow forces the audience to stand up and she gets the biggest scream at the stage door. She steals the show every night.

Question for those of you in the know...
In the article she mentions that she broke her rib during the Tony performance. After reading that I went back to my tape and couldn't figure out which actress was her. Can anyone help me out?

As Seth Rudetsky has said about Felicia, "This whoo-ah (whore in Bronx language) is on stage for 5 minutes in act 1, 5 minutes in act 2, and manages to steal the whole show." Truer words have never been spoken.

I think what makes her so special is how honest she is in all her performances! She never gives anything but real.

I believe that in the opening she's the one in the light pink dress and the short blonde wig :) at least, that's what I've heard. Now next time I see the show instead of focusing on stephen in the opening I'm gonna be watchig felicia the whole time!! haha
