Not online yet, but in the newstands and thought you'd all enjoy reading a bit of it:
“Leslie Kritzer doesn’t just shine in her talk-of-the-town new show – she explodes like a supernova… Kritzer re-creates this legendary nightclub act with a riveting mix of worship, parody and sheer nerve… breathtaking renditions of such LuPone standards as ‘Meadowlark,’ ‘Rainbow High,’ and ‘Don’t Cry for Me, Argentina’ go well beyond kitsch. Ultimately it is Kritzer’s prodigious range and stamina, not just LuPone’s, that drive her audience wild. This is no mere star reproduction, but a star-making performance all its own.”

Posted: 12/6/06 at 1:24pmI think she has seen it and was very pleased with it...but that is not a fact.

I LOVE Leslie Kritzer!! She's amaaaazing.
Somebody get her to star in a production of Fade Out- Fade In! Now!
She rocks on the "I Sing" CD.

I believe Patti has not seen the show.
From a friend close to Kritzer, she was supposed to have seen the last show but she was out of town and will be out of town for the final two performances.
I was there for the 2nd show which she did not attend, nor did she attend the first. By process of elimination, I believe Patti will not get to see this. Leslie said that she really wanted to and was involved in her research, but due to scheduling will just not be able to make it.
Everyone should be seeing this for the final two shows of the year. It truly is an experience.

Posted: 12/7/06 at 8:21amAny chance they'll add more shows?

Posted: 12/7/06 at 9:17amI heard somewhere that she was going to do a show in January before she starts Legally Blonde. Don't know if that is true though. Check out her myspace... http://www.myspace.com/heavenisadisco

Posted: 12/7/06 at 9:24amWhy do i get the feeling Lupone didn't try *that* hard to see the show? She's never seemed like she has a healthy sense of humor about herself. I could be wrong.

She doesn't have a healthy sense of humor about herself?
She went to see the Sweeney Todd skit in Forbidden Broadway (in which she whines and has a huge ass) and pissed herself, she was on Will & Grace playing a caricture of herself and she still continues to sing Don't Cry For Me Argentina after that mess (humility).
She didn't see the show because of scheduling conflicts. Period.

I asked her about a recording and she said "We have some interest but we are waiting to see on a few things." Doesn't sound out of the question, but doesn't sound like it will probably happen. I sure hope it does though!
Anyone know when the Isherwood review of the show will come out?

How about a recording that includes both Patti and Leslie!
A boy can dream!

Or a double-disc with the original (remastered) Les Mouches recordings Leslie bases her performance on and a second CD with Leslie performing them...
P.S (they have soundboards of both of the above mentioned, so not totally implausible)
