Oh my fod. First, let me say, out of the fourteen times I've seen the show, this is by far my favorite.
Bruce as Edna: Absolutely amazing. I feel awful fo even thtinking about cmparing him to Harvey, you can't do it. They are two completely different Ednas.
Jordan Ballad as Amber: I loved her! She also has teh cutest dog! Her performance was awesome. Right on the money, can't fault her.
Hollie as Penny: Though I haven't seen Michelle, or the soon to be new Penny, I don't think it would be a stupid idea for them to beg Hollie to stay as Penny. SHe was awesome. Again, a completely different Penny than Jenn and Kerry.
Wilbur: Can't recall his name, and too lazy to grab my Playbill from my room, but he was good. I wasn't blown away, or disappointed by him. He was easily a 'good guy' though.
I know there were other new members, but I just wanted to hit on these guys and gals. They were awesome. ALSO! Carly rocks! She has this little Southern charm, and her accent comes out sometimes, I loved it! Her singing voice is really great too, sort of husky, but in a very good way.
I might be going out on a limb saying this, but I think Hairspray could have opened on Broadway with the cast I saw tonight and still dow just as well as it has.
ALSO! Mary Bond Davis and Jackie were amazing as usual! Bruce had some GREAT one liners. Overall: I LOVED IT.
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints.
