Phill Jupitus is great, Sharon D. Clarke is amazing, Belinda Carlisle is good. But for me the best performance came from Adrian Hansel as Seaweed he was such an easy and brilliant performer
I saw this cast yesterday (26.11.09) for my birthday. They were AMAZING!!!! Phil was really funny and enjoyable to watch. Belinda was brilliant and Verity Rushworth was super as Penny Pingleton.
I say she looks more like Yvette Monique Clark (original Maybelle in the Non-Equity Tour) and she sounds kinda like Terita Redd (u/s) kind of high, but major soul and powerful!
Fab, Phill & Tony as mama and pappa turnblad look fab, loads of chemistry there..summat quite ballesque about phill's edna too.
Sharon's got groove, quite like johnnie's style..very mary bond davis too, think she'll grow in the role greatly
the von tussles seem to have gonedown the broadway "songbird tweety" style, soft n bubbly whereas all previous von-tussle princpial casts/understudies have had LOADS of punch n strength to their voice..but maybe live its totally different!
i totally agree with you about the von tussles- i feel that this is their chance to actually have some fun and join in so i feel they should really be grooving big time have powerful voices,
thank you SOO much for including all the Von tussle part !!!!! is it possible to post the entire song (Edna though the end) like you did with the original london cast? That would be AWSOME!!!
Phil looks and sounds good as Edna, Sharon is good too but not as good in my openion as Sandra and Johnnie. the von tusses are good too but i would like them to have alittle more energy during their part in the song and dance department. though Belinda looks soo amazing as Velma! i am sure that once they get into the show they will get better with time and will be GREAT!
It looks brilliant :D Also Sharon is amazing !! :D x

though i really souldent compare Sharon to the other 2 becuase i only heard about 10 seconds of her singing so i cant make a fair comparison.
