Kerry Ellis on Broadway — Page 2

To answer the thread and not about her riffing,accent or whatever everyone is talking about I have seen Kerry 6 times when she was here on Broadway and I will say that I thoroughly enjoyed her 3 of those times. Of the 3 times I didn't care for her was her first night,one show she was REALLY sick(Katie Adams' was on as Glinda and it was Amanda Rose's first show as Nessa) and other time I really don't remember. The 3 times I did enjoy her was David Burnham's last show,Kerry's 2nd last show and her last show.

Her acting was top notch while on Broadway but she did have voice issues(I love her voice also).

I saw Kerry on October 19, 2008 - mat performance.

I went into the show with zero knowledge of the actors or the show other than who was in the OBC.

My first impression of Kerry was.... "Well isn't that sweet... even people with speech impediments and lisps can star on Broadway.... this must be the understudy..."

But then once she tackled The Wizard and I.... I was blown away.

Her Defying Gravity brought me to tears from pure awe of her talent and amazing voice... and yes with riffs. It was quite embarrassing since I'm not all that an emotional person and it wasn't the story line but more just her voice. I'd never heard a voice like that... it produced a visceral response in me that I didn't expect and couldn't control.

During As Long As Your Mine with Kerry and Aaron Tveit, I felt a tad bit uncomfortable by how much chemistry those two had during that song.... it was beyond hot.

Winston89 thinks that margot serena pilar is a total tool.
