Adam's last day was another cast member's last day, too, I think? Anyone know who?

Posted: 6/25/05 at 7:15pmI saw Marcy play Mimi about ten times. Every time I think about her "Out Tonight" I get chills.

It's good - it's sort of similar to Daphne's.
My favorite is Simone's (<----)

I never saw Daphne do it and have only heard her on the OCR. I'm sure she was amazing (I've never heard anyone say anything to the contrary), but Marcy was my first Mimi, the one I saw more than any other, so she holds a special place in my heart.
She did some interesting stuff with her voice for "Another Day" as well. Good stuff, that Marcy.

broadwaystar2be,
Trust me. She didn't leave on bad terms. I'm not out to prove anybody right or wrong. I'm only trying to clear up that misconception.
Marcy Harriel is a great performer and did justice to the role of "Mimi".

Posted: 6/25/05 at 10:38pmI'm sorry, the best "out tonight" (that I have heard/seen) ...belongs to Caren Lyn Manuel.

I recall some Marcy Harriel detractors on the internet remarking that they should have changed the lyric to "They say I have the BIGGEST ass below 14th Street..."

Posted: 6/25/05 at 11:54pmI liked Marcy... a lot of people really hated her in the role, but I'm not sure they gave her much of a chance!

I don't even have to look it up... I was so angsty about not being able to see his last show that the date stuck with me.

Posted: 6/26/05 at 1:09amI think so, but wasn't his final show of Rent in Chicago?
