Does anyone know much about her? She was Laura Fairlie in the London "Woman in White" and evidently will play the same role on Broadway. She's American. Does anyone think she'll be a breakout talent? I think so.

Jill Paice is amazing. I saw her in shows when she was in college and she blew me away. I now actally attend her alma mater and study with the same voice teacher she had. Yay!!

I saw her in London in THE WOMAN IN WHITE - she was excellent and showed such promise!

I am glad she is reprising the role on Broadway - and I hope to see the show again at the Marquis. I am looking forward to seeing her as one of Broadway's new discoveries for this season!

Good luck to Jill!

Jill is AMAZING. I saw The Woman In White twice in London and I love the cast recording. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful. What I wouldn't give to have a soprano voice like hers! Gorgeous... I really hope she goes far!

I saw Jill Paice numerous times as Sophie in Mamma Mia as part of the Vegas cast. I loved her and thought she had a great voice. I'm very happy to hear she's coming to Broadway with Women and White because I am excited to see her finally perform again.

She was also on the Les Miz tour for a short time as the hair hag/Cosette understudy. A friend of mine saw her first performance as Cosette and said she was pretty good.
a profile on her in a Dayton newspaper last summer

Jill Price is one of the best thing in the show (alongside with Angela and Martin) and they outshone Maria Friedman and Michael Ball 10000 times!!!!!!! I am glad she could return to America and have her big break! Gd luck girl!

She's 24? Well, 25 now. I thought she was older. But anyway, she'll be great.

Not only is she stunningly beautiful, but a fantastic actress and singer. I saw her several times in The Woman in White, and she never failed to impress me. Hopefully, her performance on Broadway will turn her into a star!

Jill has a lovely voice and ws excellent as Laura. One of my favorite parts of the show is when she, Angela Chrisian and Maria Friedman sing together near the end of the first act. The three voices blended beautifully.

I'm really looking forward to seeing her -- and Angela and Maria -- reprise their roles on Broadway.

Love her! I saw her several times in WIW and also at "Night of 1000 Voices" at the Royal Albert Hall. Beautiful girl, gorgeous voice and to top it off she seems to be a genuinely lovely person. I'm so pleased that she is going to be reprising her role as Laura on Broadway. I wish her much success!

Jill Paice was an excellent Sophie in the Las Vegas production of Mamma Mia! She was right up there with Tina Maddigan, who I'm partial to.

hey..I'm new to the board.

Anyway, jill paice actually went to my high school (i'm a freshman). 3 years ago we did a production of Les Miserables and I was Gavroche. She actually came to talk to us at our first rehersal and sang a song from the show b/c she was in the tour and a song from Mamma Mia! which she was heading to Vegas to do. She was absolutely amazing and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. She also came to a rehersal of a Muse Machine show in Dayton, a high school production company she was involved in and sang Laura Alone and Over the Rainbow - which was in the show they were doing - I wasn't there but I heard she was wonderful! I just think it is amazing that being a real star on the rise and so busy that she is willing and happy to give back and doesn't forget where she came from. I love her so much not only because of her huge talent but because I think her heart really matches up to it!

Just though I'd share-
