Can anyone tell me anything about Ms. Francis? I've only heard her on the Footloose recording, but she sure can sing. I know she just did Beehive in L.A., but why is it that it's been so long since she's been on Broadway?

She moved to LA to persue more film and sitcom work. Also as good a singer as she is, she's not the greatest actress even by musical theater standards.

She was up for Elphaba in the Los Angeles production of Wicked, but lost out to Eden Espinosa.

No surprise Eden is amazingly incredible! Stacy would be okay I suppose.

I see her here (L.A) often and she's not had the best luck with the film and T.V. quest. She's recently been trying to get back into musical theater. I'm going to agree with Bree and say her acting is far weaker than her singing and it's been a bit of a problem. I would have loved to hear her sing the Elphaba songs though as she's a far better singer than espinosa, IMO.

Maybe a bit too "grown-up" for that role nowadays but she'd make a great Joanne.
