Felicia Finley is one of the most beautiful and talented women I've ever come in contact with in my life - I find myself getting tongue tied and nervous everytime I talk to her, because I just think she's so stunning and talented. I get intimidated. But I know I shouldn't - the once or twice I have talked to her, she's been one of the absolute sweetest women in the world!

Ohhh, I see how it is, fishergirl. :p It takes people talking about Felicia for you to come out of the woodwork and comment! Haha, OY!

Felicia is fantastic. No one gets comedy like she does.

Felicia is of course absolutely stunning and hilarious and talented, but can I just stress again how much I love the ensemble? AHEM? LOL. The ensemble needs a little more love around here, methinks.

Christina Sivrich is awesome. I'd love to see her play Julia one day, too.

Christina is my favorite female ensemble member. She is SUCH an amazing character actress.

No, it took me having more than five minutes to spend reading broadwayworld and actually read through the whole thread. :-P

Christina Sivrich is amazing. I saw the show about two months ago, when she broke her hand, and Angelique Ilo was on as the Cyndi Lauper impersonator...it took that performance for me to really realize how amazing Christina is. Angelique wasn't terrible, she just wasn't a good fit at all for Christina's tracks.

Sometimes, with this show, the littlest things make me laugh, and usually, they're all done by Matthew Saldivar. "Potato. *cough* Po-tay-to" is never not going to be hysterical to me and my friends....same goes for his final leap offstage during "Right in Front of Your Eyes" and when he rolls onstage on the skate board right after "Let Me Come Home." He's absolutely hysterical.

As much as I adore Matt Saldivar as Sammy, those things you mentioned above are only a FEW reasons I am DYING to see David Josefsberg on for him. LOL I know Matt's supposed to be going on vacation in August...? Anyone have any actual dates?

fishergirl, I think i saw the same performance. Angelique did her best, but i missed Christina. Christina, Tracee, Cara, Ashley, they are all amazing.

Stephen and Laura did not come out to sign at the stage door last night, btw. Tina was there though :)

Cara as Nancy Reagan is the funniest thing!!

While I really enjoyed Cara when she went on for Amy - I missed her SO BADLY in her ensemble track that I'd rather her not - her Donatella and Nancy are a scream. She's such a talented girl.

This is Barnes' review of the show:

Wow, that review is old. And this is the only good part of it:

The show is properly dominated by its hyperactive Lynch-pin, who reflects but doesn't mirror the Sandler style. The rest of the cast, notably the gently contemplative Laura Benanti in the Drew Barrymore role, and Kevin Cahoon as an overly fruity boy in the band (at least for New Jersey 20 years ago), all seem to be having fun.

As did, it's only fair to note, most of the audience.

"I totally missed out on all of those positive reviews you're speaking of."

The Wall Street Journal was a rave.

New York Magazine reviewed TWS and Lestat in the same article, and thought that everything that was wrong with Lestat worked great in TWS.

There were others too!
