Sutton Foster performed Sunday Jan 31, at the University of Findlay.
It was realized AT the concert as to why she chose Findlay, Ohio as a stop. I mean come on, Findlay Ohio doesnt exactly rank with Charlotte, St. Louis, or San Francisco.
Tiffin, Ohio (not far from Findlay) is where Phil Reno (the accompanist) is from. His parents live in the Findlay area, as does his brother in law.
The concert was wonderful! Sutton was beautiful and in GREAT voice.

I really wish she would add another San Francisco date since the first sold out so fast.

Every year The University of Findlay has a Broadway Star come and perform. Phil Reno is always the Accompanist. The past stars to have come to Findlay are: Liz Callaway, Hugh Panaro, Victoria Clark and Brent Barret and Sutton Foster.
They are able to do this due to a donor who left money for an occasion like this.
Im shocked to hear she sold out some venues. Good for her!
The youtube clip...well, I will keep my thoughts to myself.
Yowza, that was like an American Idol audition outtake.
It's ridiculous--I was in Findlay (which really is quite a small town in the middle of nowhere) the day before the concert.
But I'll be seeing her tonight in Cleveland, so all is well!
