I saw the show on Saturday matinee last week and I knew Jenn was perfect for the role from the minute I heard she was going to do it and she did not disappoint. I feel like Jenn brought all the humor that Sierra lacked while singing it just as beautifully and nailing the belting in "Where Did the Rock Go". I saw Jenn with Will Blum, and they played off each other wonderfully and Will is a fantastic Dewey and has gotten even better since I saw him in June (which given how wonderful he was to begin with is saying something). I just love this show and the kids are just so incredible with their instruments (also vocals, especially Bobbi Mackenzie as Tamika). There was a tech hold due to a problem with the automation following "Time to Play" into the faculty meeting scene which prompted Will's emphasis on "What is THIS meeting about" as well as a hilarious ad lib from Jenn about "being kept waiting LONGER than usual".
