Did a search--nothing came up. I LOVED Leah. I saw the tour, and the Velma on tour was one of my favorite parts. I was not incredibly impressed with the tour, but I LOVED the Velma. She was hillarious. She doesn't have Leah's voice, of course, but she played the part so well!
What do you all think? They seem to like bringing people in from the tour--and this wouldn't be a bad idea!

Posted: 5/3/06 at 11:07pmI'm confused. The Velma on tour is Susan Henley and she was never in the Broadway company. Please explain.
Dean: Can I tell you something?
Lorraine: That depends on what it is.
Dean: I think you're really really pretty.
Lorraine: (after a pause) Ok, you can tell me that.
