"Leslie Kritzer as Shelley!"
Yes and double yes.
She's fantastic. I was floored by her kindness at the stagedoor when I saw 'Hairspray' last month. She was an absolute sweetheart. My friend and I must have talked to her for about ten minutes on everything as far as Broadway was concerned; how she got started, what she did, what we should do- she was wonderfully sweet.
Aside from being incredibly polite, she can really, really sing. I hope for nothing but the best for her in the future. I believe she said that the week we saw her was her final one in the show and she was starting rehearsals for an Off-Broadway play and I feel awful not remembering the title, but she seemed very excited about it.
Hopefully, I'll get a chance to see her. I just think she's great. :)
i'm a tough act to follow because when i'm done i take the microphone with me.
