Jennifer Simard

Am I the only one who thinks the audience doesn't know she played Ernestina during the curtain call. She doesn't get the applause she deserves. I've seen it three times and there's such a dramatic difference from her ensemble costume to her Ernestina outfit and I think audiences don't recognize her. If she simply threw the yellow boa/scarf around her outfit people might remember. Maybe trivial but she's so talented and deserves the recognition in my opinion.

She's excellent in the show and I definitely think she's not adequately getting the recognition she deserves at the end.

I agree. She needs to do her curtain call bow in her Ernestina costume. That is the only way the audience will acknowledge her and her hilarious performance. Out of that over-the-top costume and make-up, there is NO way anyone would connect Jennifer to Ernestina.

I agree that she is not adequately acknowledged in a very fast curtain call... the boa would do the trick.

I was really hoping she was going to perform last year on the Tony's. I remember the Disaster page posted a video of her digging her costume out. I thought that meant she was gonna perform. And then she didn't

I saw HD last night and thought the same thing! I was surprised she wasn't getting a surge of applause. I agree, it must be the costume.
