Taylor Louderman Appreciation Thread

After seeing Mean Girls for the first time I walked away in shock of how amazing Taylor Louderman was. Having only seen her in Kinky Boots I had NO idea how incredible her singing chops were. And her acting was legit perfect. I saw the show again closer than I had the first time and realized how incredibly easy it looks for her to hit those high notes and belt. I walked away from the show in actual disbelief that she hasn't been getting the insane praise she deserves. I listened to the cast album and once again was blown away by her INSANE vocals. This is also coming from someone who didn't even love Mean Girls that much (I thought it was a ton of fun but not an amazing musical) Taylor Louderman gave one of the best performances I've EVER seen live. She deserves that Tony Nom, its not even a question.

I agree. Extremely good performance and I feel she has a harder job than a lot of her fellow castmates. She has to capture how evil Regina is, while still conveying how magnetic Regina is and why people even give her the time of day. You have to understand why people want Regina to like them. If she were only mean, people would shrug her off and just dislike her. Regina plays so many games and Louderman portrays this so well. All of this while separating herself from Rachel McAdams entirely. And I, too, really had no idea she could sing like that. My jaw was on the floor during "World Burn" and I thought it was the highlight of the entire show, both with her performance and the tonal shift as we enter "sh*t hits the fan" territory.

I completely agree. The show is eh, but she IS Regina and her vocals, are incredible
