Thanks for your remark, Whatacharacter.
No problem. I saw her in a regional production of Aida(which she was nominated for) and she was phenomenal. She took a completely different turn on the role...played it much younger and wide eyed...very refreshing...and a voice that will blow the roof off of any theatre.

Also, while the show may be... a Barbie show... Erin Coors is definately a force that people should remember. Her voice is fantastic, and is a great actress. Also its Barbie, you gotta make it work, somehow. Just remember that name.
Erin Coors may be good but wouldn't you look funny at a Playbill if prior acting credits had her listed in Barbie, The Musical?
Note to self: remember the name, Barbie.
Why would one look funny with "Barbie" as a credit on your resume? Erin Coors is extremely amazing at anything and extremely talented. She's sure to be a star.
Erin Coors is indeed very talented, her voice can be mistaken for Kristin Chenoweth's and with her outfit she looks just like Glinda from Wicked(another kid's show), anyways, the show was cute, it had catchy songs, and it was about an hour 10 mins long. Felicia Curry has a great voice, very low, sounded like Toni Braxton for moments. The plot of this musical is pretty simple, but it was just made for children and it had a good message. Barbie is made fun of, because she is "different" and she doesn't have wings. But at the end, she along her friends and the audience, fight against the evil witch and win. And finally Barbie gets wings and she dares to fly. Not Award-worthy but I've seen worse.

I wouldn't say that i liked it. But it wasn't the worst thing I've seen. It targeted 5yo little girls. We were 4 adults and we laughed a lot, and we loved the audience reaction. The kids were so into it. It's not award-worthy, I'll tell you that.
Barbie is coming to the Warner Theater in DC. Tickets go on sale soon!!
Erin Coors, who played Barbie, will be starring in The Wedding Singer as Julia Sullivan!
