TLIP may have lost the Tony for Best Musical, but at least Clark and Guettel won in their respective categories. This musical number is proof that they both deserved them.
Exquisite. The three truly great new musicals of the past decade, Light in the Piazza, Caroline, or Change, and the amazing Next to Normal, all lost the Tony. Commerce over art, business as usual, but glad people are paying attention to these beautiful shows.
Not to worry: I cry every single time I hear the song---even when I'm just listening to the Original Broadcast CD.
It's glorious, and so touching. When I saw the musical in New York (I saw the original cast....I am very lucky..) I couldn't believe what I was hearing in this song. It was quite shattering, actually. So....LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I saw this four times. It was peerless. I knew from the first few notes that here was a stylish, original musical score. Let's hope Adam Guettel is hard at work on something now.
And i've run out of superlatives for Victoria Clark. She was born to play this role. And the rest of the cast was perfect.
The problem is very few musicals on Broadway today have true purpose. Over the past twenty years, we're have some gems like Parade, Light In The Piazza, and Next to Normal, and even maybe In The Heights but for the most part, Broadway's been "Disney-fied" and come out with far too many shows for pure entertainment.
Theatre is a beautiful, artistic tool and Broadway needs to accept more provocative, meaningful shows onto its stages.
I cannot agree more. The dumbing down and sanitizing of broadway has left it shallow and boring.
I loved The Light in the Piazza for it's totally modern take on old fashioned theater. However, i think it is more of an anomaly than a view of things to come.
Broadway way needs more shows like this and less shows like Legally blonde, one of the worst Broadway shows of all time, it has cute songs and I love laura bell bundy, but not a good broadway musical at all.
There's room on Broadway for both. Some people might not go for this type of show, as fabulous as it is. If a show is making money, employing actors and stagehands and bringing in audiences who otherwise might not go to the theater, what's the problem?

It is such a joke and such an indictment on the Broadway theater community that "Spamalot" beat out "LITP." This is just an amazing show. If Broadway is dying, the community has no one to blame but itself for not promoting shows like this.
I like more comedic things like Spamalot. I don't know where people get the idea Broadway is dying. There is just a new movement coming now. In The Heights is a very good musical style than most other musicals but I like it alot. Shrek from what I hear was different as well. We parishoners and lovers of Broadway must accept this new wave because alot of good can come from it.
@cantaratv Please say you are joking. Susan Boyle would murder this song. She does not have the technique to pull off something as beautiful as this. I honestly do not get the hype about her. Anyway. Incredible Music. Beautiful performance from a truly talented performer!
I was in no way trying to be rude. There is such legit singing in Cats, Growltiger's Last Stand. Some versions leave it out bc it's such a long number. I feel like the show is mainly mixy legit including ensemble numbers. Name me a pure belt solo number. Mabye I'm wrong. Macavity is "belty", yet stays in a range that is easy, so technically mixy. All ensemble stuff for Soprano and tenor is WAY legit. Besides the one part in Memory, I'd say the solo stuff stays in a fairly comfortable mix range.
I don't believe that there's a single show out there were EVERY SINGLE NOTE of a song is belted. The recordings I've heard of "Rum Tum Tugger" and "Memory" were very belty.
I guess it all depends on the performer. Ex: I've heard "On My Own" belted by many (like Kerry Butler), but mixed by others (like Lea Michele).
HAAHHAHAHHA WHO EVER WAS SAYING CATS IS MAINLY BELT. . . Griddlebone sings a high E in the Italian aria with Growltiger. Why would you fight about something so stupid? Belting has overtaken broadway. . . it will come back around. People can only scream their faces off for so long. IT is very obvious that mixing is now the big thing anyway.
No need to be so rude, bcmt812!!! It is not a stupid argument. Singing is a HUGE part of the fraction of Broadway musicals. Ignorant much? :p
CATS IS mainly belt. There's a higher ratio of belting roles to legit singing roles. Betty Buckley & Elaine Paige are clearly BELTERS. An Italian aria in CATS? I saw that show, multiple times, & I never heard an E6 OR an aria.
Legit singing WILL come back ONE DAY. Mixing is the transition back to it, although it's a relatively new trend.
Vicki will always be the owner of this number - and indeed this role. Others can do lovely performances, but it's just gonna go down as an instance when an actor and a part are truly one, so brilliant is their work.
And i have to add, coz i'm a Katie fangirl, her little hand on the face touch just after "I can't leave you" - "yes you can"... that's when my waterworks start!
No, it means you are human. I sat in the Vivian Beaumont Theatre 4 times and watched Victoria Clark and she is beyond amazing...a tear down her cheek at the same time in every performance...the way she carries the burden of her daughter on her shoulders and it just seems to pull her down...then this-the most amazing finale ever written for the Broadway stage...she casts off all the weight and just showers the theatre with this aria...to have been there and seen it and heard it...unspeakable joy.
When I saw this on Broadway, Victoria Clark had tears streaming down her face by the end of this song. You could just feel the emotion pouring from her voice. She is an absolutely phenomenal actress.
We are so fortunate to have Victoria Clark's perfect performance preserved so beautifully in this video. I count this as one of the top 5 performances I've ever seen. (And that's pretty damn good company!)
to wickedkdo94: i did an opera where there were LONG scenes of just dialogue...no singing. ppl assume that opera is just continuous singing and nothing more.
Oops! I forgot to revise my comment. Obviously, I was the only one who knew that prior to mentioning it here. LOL! But one of the factors is the acoustics of the opera house. Like I said in my previous comment, I study opera/classical singing, so there's no doubt that I do my research.
You have to do some research, yourself. B'way singing is NOT Bel Canto (yes, on acting). Do you think that Bernadette Peters and Jennifer Holliday sing Bel Canto? Belting has taken over Broadway.....
There are very few shows, nowadays, that do require legit singing, like POTO, LITP. You wouldn't sing Bel Canto in RENT, Spring Awakening, Wicked, Dream Girls, CATS, Avenue Q, A Chorus Line. Belting has taken over B'way. Belting and Bel Canto are NOT the same.
To what you said on acting: Opera singers DO act. Some of the greatest opera singers, who can act extremely well, are Natalie Dessay, Anna Netrebko, Luciano Pavarotti, Teresa Stratas etc.
@renethel whats wrong with belting?????mezzo -sopranos should have time to shine too!is bel canto mezzo soprano friendly?or should mezzos be regulated to the bitches,britches , witches and ladies of the night catagory again?
Oy I keep running out of characters for each comment.
I did a solo at a concert hall (Avery Fisher Hall, to be exact) that is about TWICE the size of the Vivian Beaumont Theater without a mic. So yes, we can agree that it has to do with operatic training, but the acoustics there made a HUGE difference.
the mic is extremely small and placed on the forehead right outside of the wig and tends to be the color of the person's skin. if they had no mics, the back of the theater wouldnt be able to hear much if the person didnt sing loudly. the entire cast wears them.
This song is absolutely amazing. It is hard to think that anyone could possibly put so much passion and emotion into a single song, but she does it beautifully. This whole play is incredible.
I saw the original cast of the show and it was one of the most beautiful musicals I have ever seen. I had a lump in my throat the entire time. It was an amazing feast for all the senses!
Spellbinding...I will never forget sitting in the Vivian Beaumont at Lincoln Center and taking in every second of Victoria's performance...the tear that fell at the same time...just a magical character and a true STAR...thank you Victoria...and you were so nice at the Stage Door.
I have to agree one of the most simple finales to a Broadway show in ages, however, in that simplicity lies the tremendous power that is showcased here. It was very ambitious to end a show on a single woman's shoulders but Victoria Clark pulls out all the stops with her voice, acting, and just physical presence. She is truly spectacular.
Still...the most amazing finale to perhaps ever to grace the Broadway Stage...one actress, an amazing voice and talent, and one damn frick'n amazing character who just brought the curtain down with no special effects, no over-the-top stage-magic...just an amazing song, heartbreaking lyrics, a voice to top them all, and Victoria...who is the Queen of Broadway, without a doubt.
Saw her four times. She is just amazing and we are blessed to have this performance, this person, captured on video.
My voice instructor actually gave me 'The Beauty Is' for a piece to learn last semester. I never thought to look for video on here-this show is beautiful, I love the sets, and the costumes, and everything!
Jesus! Katie and I went to college together and I saw the show on a matinee at the end of long week, Victoria Clark= Sheer Perfection. Every performance, Every time. The effortless technique that this woman has is absolutley mind numbing! I actually think I learned more about my craft the day I witnessed her performance, than I did in 4 years of Musical Theatre college.
i try to imagine another singer in this role and it almost imposible. because "she is" absolute perfect and believable. I enjoy musical theater and i love this one in particular for many reasons. BRAVO to the entirely cast..!!
I wish people would just enjoy this show without putting down others. That's so unnecessary.
