Saw Waitress tonight and I'm really worried about JM's voice. She seemed like she was really struggling and in pain. Somehow she was still incredible.

A friend saw the show about a month ago and said something similar.

I'm on the minority, but I have never enjoyed her voice.

Oh ****, is she going the route of Alice Ripley circa 2011 on the N2N tour?

Did this happen toward the end of her Beautiful run as well? I wonder it seems like that score was probably easier on the voice than Waitress (although more songs to sing).
I think she has a beautiful voice and am so looking forward to finally seeing her in Waitress this weekend... we'll see if she's in but more importantly I hope she is ok and is taking care of herself!

I think that's just the way she sounds, honestly. Both times I've seen the show for the first five minutes I've thought, "Oh, ****, she's sick and sounds terrible," but as far as I know she's been fine both times and I've just gotten used to her voice being a bit "different." I think it makes it even more jarring if you're used to listening to the Sara Bareilles concept album rather than the cast recording.

I saw the show again a couple of weeks ago and I think her voice is definitely sounding tired and strained a bit. She is still wonderful but I have noticed that it has changed as the run has gone on. Luckily, her run is ending soon
and she can get some well deserved rest. I thoroughly enjoyed her as Jenna, she has carried all the emotions of this show basically by herself.

Saw her Saturday for the matinee and she sounded fine to me. Nothing that would merit a thread, not to mention "worry."
