Actually, Cunegonde is one of the characters that actually DOESN'T die. She just gets raped a lot :D.

@AndrewRudin It might be that way if the people she was playing with were weak, but Patti Lupone can take it and give it right back, deeper if anything -- their scenes together are hilarious -- and Paul Groves is magnificent as Candide. All he has to do is stand there and let her bounce molecules off him to shine. He is giving a full-body, full-face, incredible reading of his role.

2:36 - Where's the bird... Oh, it's Kristin Chenoweth.

@jajaka That comment shouldn't be that funny, but it is.

1:28 is such a spectacular musical moment <3

@AndrewRudin I really disagree. If she wants to be hammy and pull gimmicks, than she can. After all, the director constructed this concert to be a comedy (look at all the props), she is spicing up the comedic tone with it. In fact, her castmembers appears to be enjoying her a lot. She just plays her character to the best when she appears and exits when it happens.

[AndrewRudin]

I'm coming to really hate Chenowith. Such an ungenerous collaborator. She can't share the stage with anyone. Always has to mug, and pull gimmicks and upstage who she's with, rather than playing the scene. Ugh.

[cfjermedal]

I saw this when it came to seattle

[tommieboy1657]

I've seen the version with Bernstein conducting it, and I've seen this version, with his student Alsop conducting it, and I really don't know which one is better, because the focus is different in the two versions, which makes it very difficult, or even impossible to compare

[megarouge2001]

She's so tiny, I lvoe how he flings her around.
