If Disney were smart they would RUSH a final cast recording of B&TB. With Annelisse and John currently in the company, they would sell at lot of CDs to Disney Channel viewers. Plus Steve has been with the show for the past 38 years, let him be on a recording. It's not like Disney dosen't have the money to record it and produce it in the next month. Leaving another 2 months for it to sell in the theatre with 100s of little kids seeing the show daily.

Kyle has a great idea there. I agree with him...although it won't happen.

while her voice is very beautiful and i'm impresesed... maybe it's me, but she didn't sound very sweet at all... seemed angry when she was singing... and had almost no facial expressions in those few clips...

I loved the video, she seems so sweet and down to earth! I wish I could see her as Belle = (

To be honest, I was skeptical of her casting but after watching the video she is a very talented and eloquent woman.

She is very well spoken, and as Craig said, that may be why she comes off as "snooty" but she seems genuinely happy to be there and is honest about her expectations and the differences from film/TV to theater.

Another well done video Craig, bravo!

I just googled her and realized who she was. I had no idea she had a theatre background.


One time, Patti LuPone punched me in the face...


It was awesome.

I expected to not enjoy the video because I thought, "She's going to have that Disney channel personality, like Hilary Duff". But she's so down to earth! She reminds me of Kate Winslet actually.

I'm glad the last Belle is (or seems like) a good one.

She's amazing.
I want to see her so bad.
She seems very down to earth and intellgent.
She also seems very "old-fashioned" in her vocal sound
As well as her presentation of herself.

She should be proud of her early days.
Being 15 and playing EVITA is impressive, very impressive.
Congrats.

"A Change In Me" was fantastic on that video.

Absolutely fabulous is all I can say to describe the magnitude of her performance. Blown away. I've seen it 3 times before, First with Susan Egan, second with Andrew McArdle, and again with Ashley Brown and I went back to see it once more before it closes and I have never left that theater, after that show, feeling the way I did. Absoutely stunning. Please, cast her in more shows.

Just returned from seeing the show with my 7 year old daughter. Anneliese is fantastic as Belle, her voice was AMAZING!! She was also very gracious with her fans. She signed and took pictures with all. If you haven't seen the show, go before it's too late.
