Oh, really?

That's a shame...

[Vanhelsing777]

do the guys sing?

[skatie0569]

Yes, indeed they do!

In the storyline when they are 'performing' as their drag characters they mime to the voices of the 'Divas' (those three luminous angels with towering red beehive hairdos - they can be seen in the background..)and then they sing with their own voices when they are being themselves ... it's very effective and the performances are so emotive, so personal.

The three leads all have great voices and the Divas are incredible!

this is odd, the original has Daniel Scott in the role of Felicia, I don't get why he's not there, who's nick?

[skatie0569]

That would be Nick Hardcastle, he is Daniel Scotts understudy and he took over the part of Felicia when Daniel Scott was injured.

He still gets to strap on the Gumby shoes a few times a week and he does a great job .. but he's no Daniel. = )

So, the setup is that the three girls in silver at the back are the real vocalists, and the drag queen(s) is/are miming?

If so, that's actually REALLY clever, because it still makes the music and vocals live, while letting the drag queen(s) lipsync their gorgeous little hearts out (like all good drag queens do!)! BRILLIANT!

I agree with what you're saying about the guy at the beginning - but it is so worth persevering :-)
