Is anyone going? I've got my tickets for 3/23 and coming up from Atlanta to see her. Excited doesn't even begin to express my sentiment. Last time I saw her was in Rent (Previously in Brooklyn). So who all is going? Share the Eden love...

I'm going the 24th, Tuesday. I've only seen her in RENT (and a benefit) so I'm excited to see her.
I'm going to the afternoon show on the 22nd. Very excited. I saw her fill in for Idina in Wicked about 5 years ago and then in Brooklyn about 4 years ago.
I'll be there on Tues 3/24.

Please ask her why she turned down "Hair."
Anyone go last night or tonite?
Was there any opening act and how long was it?
Thanks. :)
Went to yesterday's 2pm show. There was no opening act...show started a little after 2pm and ended around 3:30pm. There was a special guest in the middle of the show, Katie Thompson who sang one song solo and then a duet with Eden. Eden said she wanted more of a concert feel with songs that really meant something to her. There were only two theatre songs - "Losing My Mind" and "Defying Gravity". I estimate she sang around 13 songs including Alanis Morissette's "You Learn" and Sara Bareilles' "Love Song".
She did an amazing job and it was nice to meet her after the show (she hung out and signed autographs and took pictures with everyone).

wow, she was fantastic last night. there's already a bunch of youtube videos... my favorite song had to be "i'm gonna be strong" and her eva cassidy "i know you by heart" and "losing my mind" -- she totally connectd to those songs...
here's a recent interview with eden if you haven't had the chance to peep it: http://flavorwire.com/14858/exclusive-eden-espinosa-talks-elphaba-maureen-brooklyn-and-me
She and what seemed to be a handful of people from the Cabaret in LA were at B Bar last night. Spotted Chris Isaacson, Billy Porter and (probably not with them but there) Alan Cumming
