I attached a link to the OBR of her song 'Model Behavior' from 'Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown' if you haven't heard it yet. I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO IT! She is a goddess and a genius. Give her the TONY!

I'm in full support of this thread.
BENANTI FTW
She is such an incredible actress. She is seriously beyond hilarious in Women On the Verge
I love her so much. As a performer and a person.
Not that I know her personally, but the way she carries herself in public interviews and stagedoor and such leads me to believe she is also a great person. Her Tony speech is probably one of my favorites.

She's definitely one of my very favorite performers. Loved her in VERGE and also in GYPSY, in which her performance ranks as one of the best I've ever seen on a Broadway stage.
Was not a huge fan of WOMEN ON THE VERGE in general, but it has some strong material in it. Benanti gave the best performance and also had the most to work with. I'd have no problem if she won another Tony. She helped make the part what it is and deserves it. And yes, I can't stop listening to that song either.
Benanti owned that show...there is no question.
I adored her and her perfect manic characterization of Candela.
Such a nice lady at the stagedoor as well, she was humbly beaming with joy whenever someone gave her a "Good Job"
Wish I could have seen it to know- they closed a week before my ticket date!
My favorite part of the song is during the spider bit when she impersonates Peppa. She sounds exactly like Sherie Rene!
^ LOL. I never noticed that. She does sound like Sherie there.
