Yeah. I'm chucking Hall's drops at my television.

She's still great, though.

re: Tonya

Her voice was flawless when I saw COC, she's not up to par. She brings the house down with that song.

re: Tonya

Yes, Matt. I have a differing opinion. It was powerful, but her voice was hoarse and she went off-key several times, as far as I heard.

re: Tonya

May not be up to par, but still amazing

re: Tonya

My mother (who never heard of her/the show)was not impressed. Everyone raves about her so i know she is good, and it was powerful, but not umm.. pretty? - for lack of a better word at the moment

re: Tonya

Her performance weasn't great tonight. And who cares if she's ugly? We're not talking about Miss America
#14

re: Tonya

She is very pretty. It is the character she plays.
And she is incredible! They use a fake wig and the costume is dowdy but Tonya is not.

re: Tonya

She seemed very emotional tonight. It looked like she walked off stage crying...

re: Tonya

Tonya's ugly?????? I didn't realize John Simon posted here. Well, it's all in the eye of the beholder, but sorry I think she's very attractive and she's very convincingly played glamorous sexy vamps several times in her career -- including her Tony winning performance in Jelly's Last Jam -- so yours is obviously a minority opinion. Remember she's playing a maid not Glinda the good witch, so her hair, makeup and costume purposely make her look dowdy and less attractive than she is in real life.

re: Tonya

I saw the show last week and she sounded hoarse then too. I assumed it was a character choice.

re: Tonya

oh gosh im sorry i didnt realize how my posted sounded. I just meant that it didnt SOUND too pretty. I can see the powerful great voice she has, but it didnt come through tonight because she cracked and went off a bit. again sry!

re: Tonya

I haven't seen the show, but I can see how this could be a powerful number. But it was a poor performance of it.

In terms of sheer entertainment, the opening number, "Swing" from Wonderful Town, and the Anevue Q crowd were the best, in my opinion.

re: Tonya

I think she did a wonderful job. A litte bit hoarse, but still incredibly moving, and I definitely want to see this show now---quick. I am thrilled for her; she was terrific.

re: Tonya

NYCbab, when I saw it early in may she was hoarse also. I assumed it was a character choice too.
