Posted: 2/28/06 at 1:31pmYeah, I agree Pippin. She just has an incredbily rich and perfect voice. It seems like she's never off key. She's always placing her voice perfect.

Posted: 2/28/06 at 6:44pmI would listen to her belt the phone book. There's a woman who knows how to belt without screaming, whining, and is still going to have a voice in 20 years.

What's she doing next?
She'll be in The Drowsy Chaperone. The first preview is on April 3. I'm seeing it at the end of April, and I can't wait - everything I've read about the show has been quite positive, and I loved Sutton in Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Ah, darn you people who live close enough to see her.
I love this girl. I have a recording of her singing "On My Own" and she is the only one I can listen to singing that song without my eyes bugging.

Posted: 2/28/06 at 9:04pmShe's just too damn talented. Funny this was brought up, I just started re-listening Millie myself.
#21re: Sutton Foster is Amazing
Posted: 2/28/06 at 10:02pmShe's a wonderful singer..I had the pleasure of seeing her in Little Women. I didn't really enjoy the show, but she gave a really good performance.

Posted: 3/1/06 at 12:24amThe Drowsy Chaperone is amazing, but sadly, Sutton only has about four songs in which she sings, three of which I had to struggle to recall. One is "The Bride's Lament", which for some reason doesn't stand out too much to me. "As We Stumble Along", she harmonizes only about 3/4 of the way through the song, so it's not much of her singing. "An Accident Waiting To Happen" is a duet with her and the leading man (who I PRAY will be recast), but it's not very singsongy. It's more like talking in tune. And finally, she has "Show Off", which is without a doubt the "Gimme Gimme" of Drowsy. Fantastic. It's like "I Speak Six Languages" from Spelling Bee, but with more amazing vocals (and like six reprises)!!
