Okay no talent might be a bit far but she is neither really good or excellent. They could of hired anyone?? What is really irritating is she is singing opera style notes why oh why its not legally blonde the opera is it?
I'm sorry what's the hub bub about, I think she's good. To each their own! She;s doing something right, leads in Wicked and Legally Blonde, you're right, she's dreadful! Please, we're nieve to think it's only the director that has a say in the casting, it takes millions to put up a show, i.e. Rebecca's current woes, there's lots of investors behind them who have a lot of say! She wouldn't be where she is if she was as horrible as you all are making her out to be! Let the poor girl sing, it's not like you're jumping on a plane to Australia anytime soon anyway!
I am in Australia I live there. I am shocked on the poor talent we choose for shows. When you look at Sherdian it makes me blush. Why not her ? why can't we have her in a show?
To further prove to each is own, I dare say, Sheridan Smith and who ever played Paulette in London do not even compare to Laura (who had her own issues, case and point, the MTV recording) and Orfeh. Paulette on the London recording is boring as sin and doesn't even belt at all, London, Ruthie Henshall would've rocked that out! Different standards in other countries I guess. After all, Ashlee Simpson played Roxie in London, but not in the US? Why?
Well, I thought this was going to be a thread about MCC's annual benefit, and instead I find it's a trivial discussion about an unknown actress in an awful role at some podunk theatre and I don't even care enough to finish this sentence
Trivial, without a doubt. Inappropriate for this board, absolutely. But nonetheless the same podunk theatre that gave Broadway Hugh Jackman, Anthony Warlow, Tony Sheldon, Rachel Griffiths, Toni Colette and Caroline O'Connor.
Although it is certainly unknown on this forum, this isn't some random regional theatre production in central America - it's Sydney's largest theatre and this production is directed by Jerry Mitchell himself.
