Just came back from the Bee.
It was my first time in over a year. It was a wonderful treat from a special friend.
Celia Keenan Bolger moved me to tears.
Jose Llana had me gasping for air during his special song that I wont reveal here( There are children present, ha)
I loved it.
Show some appreciation for Celia before she leaves Bee.
She deserves it.
PS Barrett Foa is hysterical as Coney Bear, and as a Dad.
He made me laugh. If you have not seen him in Bee you really should as he is hilarious.

Good idea for the thread Corine!
I love Celia! I got a signed production photo from her today!
P.S. I'm glad you loved Barrett as Leaf. He's too adorable not to love!

Posted: 9/7/06 at 11:40pmYo soy muy upset that I won't get a chance to ever have seen Celia in Spelling Bee (she's terrific on the OBCR), but she's one of the reasons I'm dead set on seeing Les Mis as soon as I can. Best of luck to her!

Posted: 9/8/06 at 12:09amSpeaking of Celia, has everyone ordered their copy of the recording of Summer of '42? She was great in that show! So was Megan Walker, where is she at?

I have liked what I have heard of Celia, and I hope there will be a legal recording of her as Eponine so she can get on my list of favorite Eponines.
Is anyone here planning on seeing her last performance in "Spelling Bee?" I would be interesting in hearing if they do anything special for her.

YAY CELIA!
I just saw her in Spelling Bee this summer and she was absolutely terrific! The things she's done with the character of Olive are astounding! She's amazing. And her range... whoa. I wish I could've seen her in "Light in the Piazza" because I know she'd be incredible.
I CANNOT wait to hear her or possibly try to see her in the Les Mis revival... if I do see it... she's the only reason why.
Has anyone else met her? She's so shy and cute and TINY!
P.S.- I never got to see Jesse Tyler Ferguson, but I adored Barrett as Leaf. He was great!

Posted: 9/8/06 at 9:43amI must add to the Celia Appreciation. She is extremely talented. It's difficult not to be moved by her "I Love You Song." Yay, Celia.
#17re: Celia Keenan Bolger Appreciation Thread.
Posted: 9/8/06 at 10:22amShe is easily my favorite new broadway performer and I cannot WAIT for Les Miz! She's going to be an amazing Eponine and can't you almost hear her On My Own right now in your head? I cry all the time on The I Love You Song. She is amazing and Light in the Piazza...don't get me going on her Clara. Amazing! I love her!

Celia is quite a performer. She has an amazing voice and I know she will be a great Eponine

Ok, I hav etlaked so much about her my siste rthinks I havce agirlcruhs on her. I don't but she is one of my FAVORTIE people on Broadway right now. She's funny, and even though I was sitting next to my mom during theI love you song, I was still crying. I also saw them perform it at barnes and noble, and when I left the store, after meeting the cast, I started crying. Oh.My.God. I think she's pretty, even if others don't.
THANK GOD SOMEONE STARTED THIS THREAD!
I noticed she talked with Jesse Tyler Ferguson WHILE some other people were spelling, laughing and stuff. Are they together? I hope they are because that would be ADORABLE. I wish I saw her in "...Piazza" too.
I SO hear her "On My Own."
And, Ok, I'm rambling, but my point here is
CELIA IS AWESOME!
AndI think, even if I didn't like Dpahne (which I do) or even the STORY, I would still go see it.
Go see Bee soon, all of you that haven't!
I sat in the LAST row, and it's still a good seat.
