People keep saying crap about Allison, but I think she sings well. The reason they have her is cuz one she is an AWESOME actress. Two they have to balance out the songs by having one soprano, and two altos or one soprano and one alto and one tenor. If u don't have balance the song won't sound right. I -3 Allison. Y'all should c the movie the help, Allison is in it :)
I saw this with the original cast and it was amazing. Allison was nominated definently for her ACTING but her singing was actually really good. It sounds really good here, too.
Say what you want about Allison Janney's vocal ability (and I don't disagree with some of the comments here), but she got nominated for a Tony for this, so she must have been doing something right.... Just saying.
Hm, I think Allison sings well (o.O) but at the same time, I'm a big fan of women with low voices *shrug* and Allison is my second favorite celebrity of all time :) I mean, I just don't see the terrible... and her voice is extremely distinctive, so of course you're going to hear it when they all sing. Lol. She'd be great in a choir! I wish she were in my choir....... >_<
i wanted to see this in ny but my entire family wanted to see wicked. i was like "its closing on the sixth! wicked is going to run forever!" and the hotel could have gotten us great seats since it was running at the theatre in our hotel.
this is the most amazing cast! stephanie and megan really deserved more credit because when allison sings, its not the best, but she was nominated for every type of award, and steph and megan were only each nominated once, and lost to her.
i saw it when they were in LA almost every weekend becausee everyone i new wanted to see it, it was a hell of a show wish had a chance to see it in NY. megan an stephanie were both in wicked so you now they can sing lol. funny enough both played mains glinda and elphie
but it's musical THEATRE, so acting is more important. the singing is an extension of the art form, but if you can't play the character to begin with, what's the point? that's why directors and producers and such usually care more about the person's acting then their voice. and it's not like allison is even that bad. she's on pitch and sells it and that's all they want from her.
lol well its not regular theatre its... MUSICAL theatre which indicates that its not just acting that should be focused on...im just saying that shes not that great a singer...u have to be a decent singer to succeed in musical theatre...i bet this is the last musical she does... and you said it urself...SHE SELLS...which is probably the only reason shes cast. to be honest...i cringe each time i listen to her sing...

i have to say, Allison is a TERRIBLE singer
i think singing is just as important. you HAVE to act while you sing, but if you can't sing, you should stay in normal theater, not MUSICAL theater.

Haha, I love how Megal Hilty is singing "you only see these" when it's "you only see tits" on the actual show.

well, the acting is way more important that the singing. and she can carry a tune plus she acts the role perfectly. she's very funny.

well in a musical acting and singing are most important....they should equal ability in both areas...
