@Broadway13Fanatic I don't, sorry :(

AMAZING!....do you possibly have any other vids? or is this the only one?

[taylorariel1]

@themonkeybananaking unfortunately this is the only one. :(

Ya'll can say what you want. Mamie Parris hits this one out of the park. I personally think she blows SJB out of the water. The sound is so pure and the quality of the performance is unbelievable. This performance has definitely made me a Mamie Parris fan. Incredible.

I gotta say, while videos are great and all, they can't capture the true OOMPH of her performance. I saw this tour when it stopped in Alabama, and the absolutely pure resonance of her last notes filled the entire theatre. I could feel it in the bottom of my soul. AMAZING.

damn she's awesome! from 3:36 til the end, I got chills! Bummer I missed her when I saw wicked last month in LA, but Mariand Torres was awesome! (:

@obessedbookwormA2Z I was mistaken, I just checked online and they no longer have a website and it says the tour started in September 2010, so presumably its over now. No worries I am SURE they will again! Its funny, I was just thinking abotu this show the other day and just put my FB profile pic of me and Allison Janey up as a remembrance haha. Great show. Thank goodness for youtube!

@irkenequine where cn I find a tour schedule? I looked online but can;t seem to find it. Can you help?

@obessedbookwormA2Z I saw it at the Marquis in NYC with the original cast. I do not know where its touring but I'm sure the main site would tell you.

I think that Mamie has a amazing voice, and she does an awesome job at this song. But the one thing that I didn't like was when she goes "Face the future and walk in to it." It sound much better when the"And" isn't there. Think about it.

Mamie has a beautiful strength and clarity but I much prefer SJB's honesty. I saw this in previews and it was magnificent--thank GOODNESS its touring because its life on stage is not done.

I love SJB, but I feel they both did amazing. There should be no bashing of women as amazing as Stephanie and Mamie. The only thing I didn't like about this version of the song (which is something out of her control) is that instead of Judy preventing Dick from leaving during the second verse and singing to him some more, he just walks off and she sings by herself. I liked it a lot better when she was telling him off some more :P

"Dreams and plans are in the making, success is out there for the taking/ wish it was as simple as it sounds/ I have no choice, I have to do it/ Face the future, and walk into it/ now that I'm unfettered and unbound" - exactly

I think this legitimately qualifies as FIERCE. SO FIERCE. What I love about this song is that it speaks not just to women in abusive relationships, but also to anyone, anywhere who's ever been in an abusive or manipulative situation. I think many of us can empathize with the freedom that comes when we finally tell someone what's what. In my case, I was in an employment situation that felt downright abusive in many ways, and I kind of felt like this when I left that job to move on.
