I am loving this woman more and more every day. Her voice is seriously like nothing I've ever heard before. I was watching the dvd of Linda Eder's Christmas concert at the Mohegan Sun in 2001. Tucked back in the backup choir was Shoshana, on the end of the soprano section. During "Ave Maria," you can hear a single soprano nailing incredibly high notes with full power, and low and behold, it's Shoshana. I cannot believe all that she can do, she is amazing.
My good friend lives next door to her parents. Hhhmmm...now that I think of that, maybe I'll use my networking skills to meet her when I go. Must call my friend now!
catstagestud, do you live in Oregon? Or just your friend does? Just wondering cause I live in Oregon and have worked with Shoshana's mother, Felice, several times (she's a dance teacher and choreographer). She had Shoshana sign a Playbill for me when she went out to new York a few months ago.
I wasn't impressed with her singing in a choir, I was impressed with her range as a singer. She has this awesome belt and then she also has a gorgeous soprano.
Huh? I said nothing about my family; simply said I've got a friend who lives next door to her dad and step-mother. Networking is a great skill to utilize. Names help a lot.

I want to write music. I want to sit down right now at my piano and write a song that people will listen to and remember and do the same thing every morning...for the rest of my life. - Jonathan Larson. Tick, Tick...BOOM!

Also Rosario Dawson is taking over Mimi being that Daphne Ruben Vega isn't part of the cast. She was one of the first to sign on. Getting the Broadway cast back was really rough for the picture but thank god they got 'em back. Now let's just hope that New Line doesn't screw up Hairspray and cast John Travolta as Edna...Yikes!
Who is Daphne Ruben Vega? I think they should have cast her because that is a much cooler name.
Wait, John Travolta's going to be in Rent? Edna? Isn't that a girls name?

No I was talking about Hairspray; supposedly Travolta is in the talks for playing the role of Edna. And I'm not sure why Daphne didn't decide to do the movie.
