Because she's incredibly awesome and deserves a thread.
Who here has her CDs?

Hey there,
Her Coffeehouse CD is well worth a purchase. She sang "Taylor" as well as "Gimme, Gimme" last week for me in a benefit in LA. She is not only a brilliant performer, but a consummate professional and one of the sweetest people I've ever worked with.

Posted: 10/10/04 at 1:09amI only have her "So Far" CD and I must say, I love it. I think her voice is fantastic.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?

Hello Jamie :)
It's spelled "Debut" (no final E) and it means the first appearance of a performer.
I hope you're taking notes, because I'm giving a pop quiz tomorrow...

Millie - I think he means 'cabaret' as a genre of performance, not the show.
We're seeing Ms. Egan along with Jason Graae in an evening of dinner and cabaret next week

The question was:
"Who here has her CDs?"
And he responded: "Does Cabaret count?" So, I was just making a simple correction.

Posted: 10/10/04 at 10:06amMillie - since he didn't capitalize 'cabaret' I assumed he meant do CD's of her cabaret performances count. Really doesn't matter in the long run.

Posted: 10/10/04 at 10:17amI think many here may know that I adore Susan Egan - I think she is so talented, and more importantly, an amazing person. She is so gracious, and I can't wait to see her at Joe's Pub. I have all 3 of her CDs - I could never pick a favorite, all are truly awesome!

Posted: 10/10/04 at 11:00amI have "So Far" and "Coffee House." I think Susan picks great songs that are so rarely heard. I can't wait to see her cabaret!

Posted: 10/10/04 at 9:21pmHas anyone seen Susan in BATB? I wish I did, but at age 7 my Broadway experiences were limited to about nothing.

Posted: 10/10/04 at 10:27pmmy friend did. she doesn't really remember anything though because she was really young. She remembers enjoying Susan's performance a lot though.

Um, yeah, sure...
Anyways, Susan Egan is wonderful! I got a picture with her at the stage door of Millie. I think it was right after her performance in Shubert Alley (she had her Millie shirt and jean skirt on, and that was the same outfit she wore in the pictures I saw). I enlarged the photo and framed it, but the frame broke. 
So I have to buy a new one; stupid cheap frames.

Well... I *think* I saw her in LA. I was like, 6. I'm kicking myself now because I don't have my Playbill anymore... but I do have my program and she's in it so I'm assuming I saw her.
I'm going to try and get her solo CDs...I was listening to AccuBroadway and fell in love with her Nothing from A Chorus Line...and then I wanted to listen to it again...of course now it never comes up.
