She sure is excited.

I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

She emailed me and is VERY excited.

When I got to work with her on Le Miz, she was SO nice and just a pleasure to be around.

I wish her well!

I don't know about the dancing, but her voice is certainly better suited to singing Roxie than Fantine.

I adore Melora's talent (singing and dancing) but that was a little too much of "Trust me! Love me!" whereas I would have preferred more of her singing to be featured in the preview.

For anyone who missed it, here's some footage of Melora singing "Roxie" that was put up on BWW early this year.

What you are seeing in that video is actually who she is:

Beautiful
Funny
Wacky
and actually really thrilled to be asked to do the job.

As she said, she's trained for years, so now's she's getting her chance to show it all off, ON BROADWAY!


Too bad it's for the Weaslers.

She is NOTHING like the character she plays on The Office, AT ALL.

She is a riot in person, and has SO MUCH energy.

And, DAMN, she's looking good in those shots!

But, Winter,

You just whine about everything.

No one cares.

Yeah, I found the video a little self-gratifying (though not in an annoying way like Cody Greene's West Side Story bio)...

I thought it was nice to see that she's actually excited about the opportunity and she has put in a lot of time in the business so why shouldn't she get to display some talent.

One thing is for sure...that hair will NOT survive a full show. Maybe at the beginning but by the end of the show it would be a hot mess.
