Posted: 10/27/05 at 3:19pmCelia doesn't fit the current interpretation of Clara. She played it much differently, and although a great singer, she isn't a natural soprano.

It makes the tickets I have for January 1st so much less interesting...
But, I'll be there on the 4th.
And once or twice before then.
I, personally, adore her as Clara.

this is one of my favorite shows of all time, and i'm so bummed to see another OBC member leave, but i'm sure she has great things ahead of her!

Posted: 10/27/05 at 5:27pmI personally PRAY they bump up Jennifer Hughes, who is Kelli's understudy. She was MAGNIFICENT in every sense of the word.

Goodness, I booked a ticket for the show last July for Dec 3rd and planned a trip from London to see the show.
That was pretty close, I'd have been very upset not to see the original Margaret and Cara. I'd have loved to see Matt though.

I was waiting for the official announcement... I hate it when rumors are really true.
We'll miss you Kelli! I wonder when they are going to announce what she is doing next... it has to be some sort of obligation that is pulling her out earlier than anticipated.

Aw, how sad. I was hoping to see her again before she left. oh well..Good luck to her in all her future endeavors. (ha i liked typing that phrase). So, I hear she's going to be in the Pajama game? That's exciting..I don't know much about it..but Im gonna find out.

Posted: 10/27/05 at 6:49pmI will miss her in this. I have been obsessed with this show and that is something that hasn't happened to me in a while. I must make sure to get back and see her before she leaves. I only hope that she is on to even better things (although I can't quite imagine anything being better than this). I suppose everyone must move on. I wish her all the best and thank her for a wonderful performance.

Yes, Jennifer Hughes!
...and David Burnham - the perfect pairing.
(They were magic when they got to go on together).

The third time I saw the show, I was fortunate enough to see David Burnham and Jennifer Hughes...both were excellent. Jennifer would be a fine choice for Kelli's replacement, although I think they are going to try and bring someone from the outside (the same thing they did with Fabrizio and Signor Naccarelli)
I will be going to Lincoln Center during my lunch hour today to get December 4th tickets. So excited to see Kelli's final performance. She is definitely one of my favorite broadway actresses.

Posted: 10/28/05 at 12:41pmJust got back from Lincoln Center...I now have two tickets to Kelli's final performance! Hope to see some of you there!
