BWW TV ON THE SPOT EXCLUSIVE: Anneliese van der Pol — Page 4

She seems like such a nice person! I love it when people are outrageously talented and still have great personalities. I really think she deserves all the attention she's getting. Maybe she'll perform in a leg of the tour that will most likely be happening after this show closes on Broadway. Or, as other people have said, maybe we'll see her as Mary Poppins. She could definately pull that off.

^ Ooh, Husk, that IS a good idea!

She would kill as Fanny!

She obviously has the comedic chops, and it certainly sounds like she has the voice, and if she did Evita than... damn.

She would be wonderful.

i know a lot of people that do that, it's not really a "technique" so much as just the way a person sings and moves their mouth. I don't really think little things like that should affect someone's opinion of how good she is, facial expressions are unimportant when she has a voice that good.

I never said that that's what they were saying, don't make assumptions.

Then who were you talking about when you said this:

?

Raviolisun is right: I was just saying that I wonder why she does it, not that it makes me dislike her Belle.

This girl is freaking AMAZING! I love her.

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Annaliese in her pre-Raven days when she did Evita in Buena Park. She played our Evita at the age of 16. Believe me, she was fierce. In her interview she said how she wanted to go out for the mistress and instead they offered her Eva. I remember her and I talking about it (and they offered my then girlfriend at the time, the Mistress). It was an awesome outdoor production and it was also in the heat of summer, so it was hot. I remembered how she would do her impressions of Judy Garland, because there ARE certain instances where she sounds spot on. I'm glad to see her doing so well and not a bit surprised that they offered her this role. It's perfect for her. As I mentioned in a previous post, I have the video of her playing Eva....I just need to figure out how to load it from VCR to computer. lol She went to the same performing arts high school as Susan Egan and it's funny that two generations from the same school originated and ended the role. GO ANNALIESE!!
