I haven't seem TLM yet and really want to see Sierra before she leaves.
Do you guys think they will have rush tickets for this Saturday night show?

Posted: 4/22/09 at 4:37pmI would LOVE to see Sierra before she leaves but i doubt i can make it to nyc before May 31st. Has anyone seen both her and Chelsea perform?

I have seen both Sierra and Chelsea go on as Ariel.
There are merits to both performers and performances, but if we're doing a comparison I MUCH prefer Chelsea to Sierra. In my personal opinion she looks more believable as a 16 year old, and I prefer her voice to Sierra's (particularly the end of Part of Your World Reprise and Wildest Dreams, Sierra head-voices the end of both (which could be something she was directed to do) and Chelsea belts the end of both).

Posted: 4/22/09 at 9:54pmI have seen Sierra and Chelsea and, like doubleentendre,thought Chelsea was MUCH better. Her acting was more believable and her voice is a lot nicer. Sierra's belting is pretty unpleasant to listen to (it's very harsh), but Chelsea's sounds a lot more natural and clear.
