Isabel Keating fans...

She sounds perfect as Judy Garland. She is very good in my opinion

I like her acting but her voice annoys me.

I saw Enchanted April and I didn't realize she was in it until I read this thread. I love her to bits. I was waiting to take some pictures of Hugh the other night, when Isabel exited the stage door. She came right over and signed my Playbill and I told her how wonderful I thought she was. She was adorable and so gracious. She's lovely too.

hey theartegirl.... i can't agree with you more. when i was at the stage door she came out and i swear i think i was the only one asking her for an autograph. she was so gracious and a sweet person with signing my cast recording. i actually wrote to her and i got a picture back along with a sweet letter. (i had asked her a few questions about her costumes and makeup) she so needs to do more broadway. i don't care if it's a musical or straight play on broadway or off. i will be there supporting her. with talent like that she needs to stay in ny.

When I saw BFO last December I loosely knew that there was a "Judy Garland" character in the show but I honestly didn't know much about the show other than all of the hype about Hugh. When Isabel stepped on the stage as Judy and started singing I leterally got chills. I remember the last years of Judy Garland when she was skinny and shaky from her vodka diet and Isabel was spot-on. I totally believed that she was Judy Garland. I even heard the guy behind me mutter, "My God, I thought she was dead...". Fabulous performance...and it's great to hear that she is such a gracious person, too.
