MovieGuy1031...yep! Guess I will be up. I think It wont post until 1:00 here in Denver. After reading the note under the countdown clock, it says the time reflects the local time on your computer and unless you're in the Pacific Standard Time Zone, it might be inaccurate. 11:59pm PST. PST. PST!!!
So I bet it will still be 3:00am EST, 1:00MST and Midnight PST. Someone here said that the site said refresh for the list on the site. I wonder if they were on the East Coast. That was right about 10:00 my time.

Im so glad Jenna is Ivy again now I can sleep...

[starlyricist]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 3:05am

Okay, well somewhat disappointed, but I'm very excited that Jenna is going to be a part of the recording. I'm just happy that we'll have a real recording of the entire thing. Can't wait until September!!!

This is a bit picky and while it is a studio recording, doesn't Keili Lefkovitz look too slender for Nadia?

[gustof777]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 3:12am

my thought too D

[uncageg]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 3:15am

I would assume she, Keili, was chosen for her voice not looks since it is just being recorded and not put onstge.

[DMsquared2]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 3:19am

Obviously...but she also originated the role for the world premiere.

OK. I'm done. Sorry.

[uncageg]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 3:23am

I was hoping John Hill would be on the recording

[RyToast1]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 8:04am

Is it just me, or was anyone else expecting names that were a little MORE familiar??

Oh well, at least the wait is over!!

Posted: 8/16/07 at 8:31am

My friend is quite the fan of Matt Doyle. I've only seen him on as ensemble so I can't really judge...She saw him as Melchior and then most recently Otto in Spring Awakening and said that when he came out for the touch me solo as Otto it was "unreal." Very excited for him. I really want to know who the claire is. PS! I totally saw the Jason in that movie "She's the Man."

[playbilled]

Posted: 8/16/07 at 8:48am

I'm really happy about the three leads. I think they are all really exciting, cause we have Jenna, and then two great up and coming young guys! I mean, James Snyder could hit it huge when he does Cry Baby here, that's really cool that he's on this.

I saw Keili as Nadia throughout the Los Angeles run. She was amazing. She was onstage as Nadia in all her overweight glory, but when seeing her at the stagedoor, without wig and costume (which included the extra baggage) she was amazingly beautiful. You would never have guessed it was the same person. I had been hoping for and excited about her being in the recording.
