Wow. Lexi is really bland. Is this what she sounds like on the road? If so, I'm not impressed.

I'd say that's a pretty fair representation of her performance on the tour.

However, I did find her singing voice to be quite strange. One minute she seemed to be out of breath, and the next she was belting the notes wonderfully. This breathiness was especially notable during Light My Candle, where she sang "Would you li(gasp)ght my candle?" Like I said, when she belted at the end of Out Tonight, it sounded great, and I wondered where that singing went during other moments.

Her acting and dancing, though, were great, and she actually looked 19! (Imagine that...)

I assure you, she is much better than that clip shows. Her singing sounds stronger live, and her dancing is a lot better now. I saw her once in opening weekend in Cleveland and again this spring in Chicago, and she's improved on an already solid performance. Her "Out Tonight" in Chicago was the most energetic I've ever seen live AND SHE HANGS UPSIDE DOWN (like Renee Elise Goldsberry did). Just sayin'.

Not to mention, I think she's a wonderful actress and her chemistry with Adam is lovely. And, like bwayfan7000 said, she actually looks 19.

There is only one problem with Lawson looking 19...Pascal looks like her father. It creates a whole new dynamic between Mimi and Roger...

This might be unpopular opinion time, but I thought Adam looked just as young as most of the other Rogers I've seen. And most of my Rogers have been fresh-faced, non-equity 20-somethings.

And before you ask: I was in the third/forth row both times I saw him.

I think Anthony still looks young enough for his role as well (as do Gwen Stewart and Michael McElroy). The only person I've ever seen in the show who was clearly too old for their role was Karmine Alers as Mimi, and, to be fair, she still has a rockin' bod.
