Laura Benanti is awesome.
She's kinda brilliant.
Hope she gets back to Broadway soon! Do we know if she has anything lined up?
I might see her on July 10 at Wolf Trap (VA), since Matt Morrison is also performing the same night, and he invited me. I'd love to see her perform live!

Nana, the Croc and Tink? Truly outside-the-box casting. Just love her.
Forgive me for a comment that doesn't speak to her immense talent... but Jesus, can she look any hotter?
Her interpretation of Tinkerbell is my new favorite thing.
hmmm... A tramp stamp. I wouldn't have guessed.
Valeposh, thanks for the heads up!! I live right by Wolf Trap.
PromisesPromises2, you're very welcome! I'm trying to figure out my travel arrangements these days. Hopefully I'll be able to attend! I've been to a bunch of Matt's shows, but I've never seen Ms Benanti live.
I think this video will end up being more entertaining than the actual Peter Pan broadcast.
Is she dating Matt?
Haha! No. They're just performing on the same night. I don't know the relationship status of Laura, but Matt is engaged to a model/actress called Renee Puente.
I love the crocodile.
This was frickin brilliant! She needs to play Mrs.Darling in this!
If she ends up getting cast in every role I'll definitely be tuning in. Otherwise...

really more Broadway I miss her on the stage she is one the best actresses ever. One of the best actresses ever to have graced Broadway. I think she would be great in anything she does.
I feel like such a party pooper, but I didn't laugh once. And I ADORE this woman and loved all of her prior TheaterMania and Playbill videos.
FB Please keep your hetero persuasions to yourself--don't you realise that BWW is strictly for the OTHER side of the fence-my sensibilities are shaken, need the smelling salts after that comment.

"hmmm... A tramp stamp. I wouldn't have guessed."
Seriously? She's got quite a few tattoos.

I think you made a wrong turn somewhere - this isn't DataLounge, darling.
FB and I have a 'thing' going--- you wouldn't understand-it's rather 'delicate'.
Yes Ghoshlight, the Lips and I are breaking new ground here so best for you to just give us wide berth. And now, let's all sing "Reach Out and Touch Somebody's Hand..."
FB, I have just put up a new avatar,especially for you, to try and keep you on the straight and narrow [if you get my drift].
Not sure when/if it will appear but I am sure it will keep you on your chosen path-any SLIGHT detour and I will be delighted or SHOCKED.
