Saw the show Sunday Night- Ta’rea was out, and Gisela Adisa was on for Deloris (at least I think so, I can’t quite remember what the board said outside the theatre, but I am pretty sure). When she first came on, she looked a lot like Patina. She was truly wonderful- having seen Patina, Raven and Ta’rea- I think she is now my favorite. I mean, she was pretty darn perfect in everything (even made my mother cry during ‘Sister Act’.) Lynne Wintersteller was perfect as Mother Superior (having seen Victoria, Carolee and Hollis) I felt like she was light years better then Hollis- vocally and otherwise. She and Carolee are tied with being my favorite Mother Superiors (I preferred some of Carolee’s line deliverys over Lynne’s). It’s Funny, I felt like Carolee was better than Victoria, and I felt like Lynne was better than Hollis.
Chester Gregory was just as good as he was on Broadway- my only sadness was that his highest note in “I could be that guy” was gone. The whole cast was really wonderful. As some people have said- Diane Findlay’s rap was perfect and you could understand every word. Florrie Bagel still brings it as Mary Patrick. Ashley Moniz was spectacular as Mary Robert- Her ‘Life I never led” was the best I have ever heard. DaShaun Young was on for Curtis and was wonderful.
