Brooke is Belle (just saw her. short review.)

May contain one spoiler, but I doubt it's anything you don't know. All I can say is wow! When Brooke took the stage, I had tears because I was so happy for her and she was so wonderful. She is both beautiful and adorable which is great. Also, she has such a lovely vocal range and you can just tell that she loves every moment of being on that stage. Her acting was incredible and her dancing was fantastic. She has the best facial expressions. At the end I was crying when she told the Beast that she loved him. Then, when she came out the stage door, she was giving all the little girls kisses and it was just so sweet. I'll say it again- this couldn't have happened to a nicer person. She was amazing. Dreams do come true.

Please go see this show while Brooke! Now.

And what a talent she is, she was wonderful. Everything saddle shoe said is true. I'm so happy for Brooke, she's living a dream, and she is so clearly loving it.

You wanna know what sucks poeple? I saw this show for the first time in the last week Christy Can't-Sing Romano was in it. What a shame to know now I was that close to having Belle done well.

Check out the 31% increase in attendance for Beauty.Guess Everybody was waiting for Brooke.:)

Saddle Shoe and all of you are soooo right on with Brooke's performance. She was truely amazing. I cried through the whole show. Everyone around us was sobbing, even my husband was a basket case during the scene where the Beast is dying. Her enthusiasum spilled over into the audience. I am going again on Oct 24 with some friends and I can't wait. SJ13 I agree with you....sign this kid up long term......she is Belle on and off the stage. After Jan 9 if it ain't broke don't fix it....pleeeeeeease!
