She sounds really good as Belle, it makes me wish the show weren't closing so soon.

Wow, she sounds amazing. Hopefully she'll do more roles on Broadway in the future.

I know pretty much nothing about her, other than what I have seen in that video, but I am thoroughly impressed with her stage presence, acting ability and most of all her voice. Her "Change in Me" is amazing, and her acting in it seems spot on.

Refreshing to have a Disney Channel Belle that can actually sing!

She seems pretty fantastic! Very smart and down to earth.

Wish I were there to see her performance! And although I knew this video was about her, I was hoping to see some Johnny T.

Just curious.... is it "the norm" that tix for the final performance would not be available for purchase?

Ticketmaster only selling tix thru 7/28?

Wow. She is so intelligent, and extremely talented. I was actually very inspired by that video. It's so wonderful to see someone from the Disney Channel fame who actually is talented and really loves theatre. I can tell that she's not just doing this for fame. I can't wait to see what else she does on Broadway.

"Just curious.... is it "the norm" that tix for the final performance would not be available for purchase? "

For such an important, and long running show, it is logical that final tickets will not be open to the public. It is possible that they might sell from really expensive seats in the back for fans. For less successful shows, it is common to be able to purchase finale tickets.

What a great video!, I urge anyone to go see her even if you don't like Beauty and the Beast, her performance was incredible.

I know virtually nothing about Beauty And the Beast, but I recognized her name from watching That's So Raven with my little cousin. I'm impressed, this girl is really talented.

I thought she came off kind of fake in this video. But she is very talented. Just wish we could have seen the real her in the interview..

Wow! I've only heard her sing on the Disney channel, but this was amazing! Does anyone know how old she is because she seems much younger on television.

According to imdb.com, she is 22.
