Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:41amThat's funny! Half of us are like, "I like the staging!', and others didn't like it. Lol. Whatever. I wasn't BLOWN away by the duo, but I definately liked them.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:41amyou could totally tell that the space did not work well for the performance, just the mix alone was off. I really need to go see wicked. ive tried the lotto 35 times and have lost. living in nyc lost all its perks.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:43amIn my opinion, all their thinking about these days when casting Galinda is if the girl is cute and funny. Did they forget it's a singing role?? I was completly unimpressed by the duo.

I know it was only a small part of the show and there are a lot of factors, but based on what I saw, I don’t like Kendra as Glinda. She had some what strange mannerisms and I did not like her voice. There were a lot of parts where she and Stephanie did not blend well. Again, I know, Limited space, nerves, late at night (take that back, I thought it was like), but based on what I saw, that’s my opinion.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:45amthat's not late at night jsousa - they tape that at about 4:30pm

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:45amAfter seeing the tour I feel that makes them look bad. Not that I thought it was horrible or anything, but they always cut out the part I like that I think makes it cute and touching, and you could barely hear Steph and Kendra for some reason. They didn't sing enough either really, so I don't think you could really judge their voices by this. Made them sound kind of weak IMO, which I felt was true for Kendra with some higher notes, but live Stephanie hits everything clearly and blows you away, and I think this made them look...average.
I love Les Miserables.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:47amI saw Kendra stumble, but then she played into it and was bouncing around, so I questioned whether or not she stumbled. It wasn't a big deal.

Ya, Kendra tripped, but it was a very small space...don't blame her.
Is Timothy George Anderson the ribbon dancer?
Did I see Kristen F. Oei? The camera girl? She is a swing...I wonder who was out.

like 12:32. And you'll probably get a minute of commercial in there too

Ribbon dancing is boring. And I don't get a thrill out of seeing people do flips either.
EDIT: The views expressed in this post are my own personal opinions. Take no offense to them.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:51ammillie i agree.. kendra sounded bad and then looked stupid when she was bouncing (after her trip) when everyone else struck a pose.

Posted: 7/19/05 at 12:51amagreed...i think he could have easily adapted his choreography sans ribbon and managed well...but i think the ensemble should be more visible during the opening of that song rather than just him DS
