I will be there on the 3rd. I'm anxious to see Laura Benanti's take on the role. After seeing the show twice, both times with Tina Maddigan, it's hard to picture someone else in the role. Judging purely by the cast recording and the photos I've seen, Tina seems to fit the role better vocally and physically. But who knows... Perhaps Laura will change my mind completely!

As will I!
And I second the welcome back!
l love you without knowing how... or when... or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride.
I love you because I know no other way than this.
I believe in fate
But it's up to us to follow through

What a TRIUMPHANT return!
Laura was having so much fun on stage. I felt tonight what I knew was missing the last time I saw it.
The whole cast seemed to be having a blast. Steven was out but Kevin Kern was a wonderful replacement.
I just can't get over how seamlessly Laura sank back into the role after being out for over a month. She was having a blast. Throwing in some ad-libs. It was such a great night.
Plus...I caught the bouquet.
WELCOME BACK, LAURA!

Maybe she got some inspiration from Tina Maddigan's take on the role. I'm just sayin'...

What did Phantom say that was so derogatory? We all know he prefers Tina, but I didn't see anything in his statement that was negative about Laura.

I think what iLuv was referring to is the fact that Phantom just will. Not. Shut. Up. About how awsome Tina is.
And I have too agree. Reguardless of how I feel about either performer. It was cute and kinda sweet at first to support someone you like, but now it's just annoying as hell. Are you physically capeable of talking about ANYTHING else?
l love you without knowing how... or when... or from where.

Great chemistry.
I felt it a little more when she was with Steven.
But, with Kevin and Laura never having worked together, it was right on. Just a testament to Laura's greatness.

DrunkyMcWasted- Obviously, with a screen name like that, you're a fan of The Wedding Singer. Well, I'm a fan of Tina Maddigan, just like you're a fan of Laura Benanti. Deal with it.
Tina always had a fresh take on the role. She was amazing to watch, especially all the bloopers. Why wouldn't I miss such a great actress?

There's a difference.
Laura fans are classy. They don't purposely go into threads supporting an actress' return to their role in a Broadway show and post about how their favorite actress was better.
Apparently Tina fans do.

I'm so happy Laura's first night back went well, even though I knew it would!!
Here's hoping she and the rest of the cast stay well health-wise and continue to have fun onstage!

Tonight was really amazing - I was so glad to see her having so much fun and to see her back in the role - she just does so many special things that I miss when she's not there.
Welcome back Laura! It was great!
*side note* - Kevin Kern is a HOTTIE, wow. And amazingly talented, to boot! I was all about him and Laura together. Adorable. And they just took to each other so well even though it was their first time on together!

Last I heard from Richard Blake, he said he would be leaving around mid December or something.
Kevin Kern is a swing in TWS. I am so sad I missed his first time on with Laura.
Between this and Kitty, the poor man is probably exhausted.
And just as a reminder, Richard Blake is out this Saturday for anyone that wants to catch Matt Stocke as Glen.
