Maybe. But they bring different areas of talent. Beth is a comedienne. Elaine is a blow-the-roof-off-the-place singer. She's the British Patti LuPone. Elaine was the original Evita. She was the original Florence in Chess. She knocked Piaf out of the park. She was a great Anna in The King and I. So, don't knock her. She gave it a try. But, she could sing the phone book and still sound good.

She was also Grizabella in the ovie Cats by Andrew Lloyd Webber. she kicked Betty Buckley's Butt!!!

Whoa! It's Elaine Paige! As "The First Lady of Theatre" she has created & even stolen many major roles! A spectacular singer & actress!

Although, as a "leading lady" myself, having played this role & others she originated, I must agree that Beth Leavel wins hands down. It would have been much more helpful to actually compare an Elaine video to Beth's video of course.

She is a much, much better singer than Patti LuPone in my opinion.

my second favourite show ever.

it really is an injustice to all theatre that they closed it.

Man, I'd love to have seen this show without the over-miked sound I had to endure in the Broadway production. It ruined the show.
