Posted: 3/18/07 at 5:56pmJust wondering if anyone saw her performance. I think this is the first time Lea Michelle has been out.

Posted: 3/18/07 at 6:04pmYes it is the first time she was out. I heard Krysta was fantastic. I heard this news before the show even started today.

She makes me hot. Watching her rock out during Totally F*CKed is the best part of the show.

This doesn't mean Michelle is sick. Sometime producers intentionally give the performer a night off so they can see the understudy perform...and since Krysta hasn't gone on as Wendla yet...this could be the case.

Posted: 3/18/07 at 6:41pmI must say that I have tremendous respect for Lea Michele. In a day and age when performers seem to call out every other day, it's wonderful to see someone (especially a young performer) with a great work ethic, who can go for five months (and three months off-Broadway) and only just now miss their first performance. Brava to her.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

At an audition one time, she was going in right after me and we were talking a little bit. During our conversation, she mentioned that she was doing Good Vibrations and it had just closed. I told her I was sorry to hear that and kept thinking in the back of my mind, 'It won't be long before YOU'RE working again.' And I hadn't even heard her sing a note yet.
She's BEAUTIFUL.

That type of typing makes me question whether you are even old enough to see the show.

Posted: 3/18/07 at 7:01pmI heart Krysta Kritzer (the Kritzer because I think she looks like Leslie).

Maybe this has been posted alreay, but just in case:
Lea is taking a vacation from Sunday to Weds. of this next week (4/8-11) and Krysta will be going on as Wendla for each performance. So if you're looking for a way to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior...
Just thought y'all would like to know. I will doubtlessly be there at some point. She's great.

I can't vouch for the "talented" but I agree about the "hot".

Posted: 4/3/07 at 7:11pmI just wanted to say I know some people who hauled ass to see Krysta perform as Wendla for the first time. I know some people will be doing the same for when she goes on next week.

Posted: 4/3/07 at 7:14pmI've only seen her cover Isle and she was fantastic, much different that Lauren's interpretation. I'm sure she made Wendla completely her own.

I WISH I could've.
And I WISH I could do it next week.

Posted: 4/3/07 at 7:24pmKrysta is one of the most talented people in the cast. I've seen her as Ilse twice and Martha once and in both roles she was absolutley amazing.

Posted: 4/5/07 at 5:03pmHow is her chemistry with Jonathan Groff? I saw Lea Michele and she was great. I am interested in seeing Krista's performance though.
