on the video of this event on broadway.com, she doesnt sound very good

kristy has only done the role maybe once or twice, poor girl. she isn't bad, she just has a different timbre to her voice.

hmm when would they need her to go on? what are the chances of shoshana (or whoever is playing elphie) AND the standby being unavailable?

When the two girls are jews. Pretty much, only then, unless some freak accident happened to both of them...

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 1/20/05 at 5:14pm

it has happened before...

both dina and sho, being jewish, missed a show and kristy went on. right now, saycon has not started yet, so kristy is the only cover.

an exmaple -- aida. the standby was out sick, the understudy was on vacation, and heather headley came down sick. they had to bring in merle dandridge from the tour for a few shows.

that's awful!

Hmm... she seems like a talented, pretty girl but her rendition of Wizard and I just was not good. It sounded like a general high school girl rendition of it :-X. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but does she ever go in as Glina? I'm blanking right now.

Posted: 1/20/05 at 5:20pm

Megan Hilty does. I dont know who goes on if JLT and Megan happen to be out on the same day...

Megan Hilty! That's the name I was drawing a huge blank on, thank you!! Kristy is normally ensemble correct?

[broadwayguy2]

kristy is normally ensemble.

I THINK Stacy Morgan Lewis is the Glinda understudy.. I KNOW that she covers Nessa......

She is. She took Melissa Bell Chait's spot.

It's funny cuz in one of the pics of kristy you can see the little latex strip that is attatched to the wig popping off of her head. How do they attatch that to the head? Is it some sort of temporary glue?

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 1/20/05 at 5:29pm

there is no latex strip on those wigs. latex strips are on CHEAP wigs. broadway quality wigs have wig lace. are you sure that you are not refering to her microphone??

[whatyouown223]

Posted: 1/20/05 at 5:34pm

She does have a bit of green covering the brim of her wig so that they don't have to greenify so far up, though.

where is the video clip?

[liotte]

Posted: 1/20/05 at 5:58pm

I was there for the festival, she sounded much better in person than in that clip!!

I didn't think Kristy was very good either. Everyone else was great though! (except the Lion King....I hate the show!)
