Well, today was, how you say, exhausting.
This much heat should not be allowed ever.
Anyway, it was amazing to see these immortal beings materialize before me on the stage.
No, I'm just kidding. It WAS pretty awesome to see them perform. Sadly, Jesse didn't come to B Park...Wilson did his solo. It was good, but Jesse does it better.
The cast sounds amazing and Tracie is absolutely UNBELIEVEABLE! She is better than Frenchie Davis to boot (more on that later).
So the highlight of the day was the EXTRA special treat that Idina gave us (did someone tell her I'd be there!?) As if the heat from the sun wasn't enough....
I won't get too much in to that as I can't relive it right now....
Well, at the end of the day, I saw Rent. In a way it was the perfect closing. But it was also anti-climatic having just seen most of the OBC/Film Cast.
Anyway, I used to like Matt - but he seems bored in the role and, he was funny, but he needs to bow out gracefully.
Jay Wilkison - Roger Understudy - he has a great voice, very powerful. But his accent was weird and there were some things that sounded off (not vocally), just generally off.
Destan Owens (Collins) - GREAT "Cover you Reprise"
D'Monroe (Benny)- Love him, once again (third time seeing RENT, second for him). Same goes for Justin Johnston who is an amazing Angel. Second time for him.
Merle Dandridge is a great great GREAT Joanne. (Can you tell I'm tired).
Karmine Alers is also an amazing Mimi.
Kelly Karbacz - Maureen - In a word, she is a lunatic. I don't know if it is in a good way or a bad way.
Frenchie Davis - I guess I was expecting more. She was good. But Tracie rocks her.
