Eliseo has such a gorgeous voice. I'd love to see his take on Kevin. Oh well. Maybe I'll luck out when I go see the show.

Saw Andrea again in Ithaca today! I was babysitting and ran into her at the Farmers Market! So cool... lol.
I love how nice broadway people are. I mean, they really seem to care about their fans.

I just need to say how much I adore Eliseo's Kevin! So great. And is he not the sweetest guy ever? Love him!
Blanca's Daniela was enjoyable as well.
On a completely random note, has anyone ever gotten to speak to Priscilla/got anything signed from her? Everytime I see her she runs out the door, says thank you to everyone but doesn't stop to sign.

Hi ITH fans. I've been following ITH on the Internet since it was off-broadway - but haven't seen it yet. Got the cast album 2 weeks ago and I'm in love.
Chica, I'm Puerto Rican, and people have always said to me "but you don't LOOK Puerto Rican..." I was always so disappointed to hear this - because with women with traditional Hispanic features are so beautiful. I grew up wishing I looked like a beauty ala Karen Olivo.
My biggest heartbreak was when I wasn't cast as Morales in ACL because I didn't look enough like a "Latina" . Ironically the role went to a non- Latina. They cast me as Maggie - but gave me the song What I Did For Love cause they liked my voice, so I was grateful, but sad cause I wished I could've just done the role.
Years later I eventually did the role and other Latina roles like Anita and Evita. But I'm rambling. ANYWAY.....
My Dad always told me that Hispanic people look all different ways - like you said. And that was always a comfort to me. But yet, in the world of theate, you gotta wonder how much "look" matters - especially in a specialized piece like this.....
Oh btw- I submitted my stuff to the casting email on the website. Does anyone know anything about that - or has anyone submitted their info?
