She's not in 'I Feel Pretty' ? Too bad she's not a good understudy. I bet Kat is better.

I Feel Pretty is only Josefina (obviously), Kat, Jennifer, and Danielle.
I know I've said it about half a million times but I think Kat would be great as Anita. She covers Maria, too, which could also be good.

Yeah, Kat seems like a lovely girl.

Which one is Kat? The one with the blonde wig? The one who tries to outsing Josefina? Or the third one?

The one who tries to outsing Josefina (and is hilarious for having so little to do).

Kat is also the one who sits with Jennifer in America, and jumps in for the end, right?

She is so funny during "I Feel Pretty." (i'm listening to that song right now - the spanish version)

So is Yarina at least a good dancer? Someone said she wasn't, but then someone said she was.
I guess I can forgive bad singing if she's a good enough dancer, when it comes to Anita.

Why does every WSS thread need to turn into this?
We were having a nice discussion about the talented Shark girls.

Her dancing was fine technically (some of her lines could be a little neater), but there was, like most of her performance, no feeling behind it.

I agree with you. Technically some things could use some tightening but she dances very well and there's a lot of passion behind it.

correction: the ultra successful 1980 revival. which was so successful because robbins insisted on marshall over two more vocally capable performers, and sang a maria for the ages! it went on to launch marshall's career as well as the career of its riff, james mellon, who robbins also insisted on!
oh wait.

Whoops. Haha. She may not have been in for the press video of America as she missed a lot early in the run.

ohhh, thanks for clearing that up. I like knowing everyone in a show but there are just so many in WSS. :)
tangent - would LOVE to see Kat Nejat understudy either Anita/Maria. Am a big fan of Her Tiny Fierceness.
k, I'm done...carry on. (or rather, don't. pointless thread is pointless.)

I was there last night and I was deeply disappointed to see the understudy board that full, but the show went on and I enjoyed myself.
