Oh, and Jeff Blumenkrantz is so fierce!

But why doesn't Paquette sing at the end (with the others)? I can't hear her part. Maybe I am already going deaf :p

[biggestChenofan]

Kristin Chenoweth is the prettiest...no wonder she's Cunegonde :)

I love her! Such a great rolemodel!

[WickedTheMusical7]

I'm playing Maximilian in our community theatre production of Candide:)

[CrispNightmareCrew]

Beautiful sound, one of my fave musicals... I just saw this at the STC. It was incredible!

[rockin210]

oh my god, IT IS A PIMPLE!

[bsaxagent]

It is a wonderful interpretation of each character. I love this performance a lot.

[SiloliWolfeden]

Maximillian (sp.?) Is SO funny!

[prodigalsonmusical]

@ditto151 That doesn't mean he has to be played over the top. See Kurt Oldman's performance for a more mature portrayal that incorporates it without sacrificing depth for a cheap laugh.

[SharpieInkball]

I absolutely agree. Chenoweth is a fully trained Opera singer, who happened to get a part in a regular play and rocked it. Just because people don't like her ridiculously fantastic high notes doesn't mean she isn't good.

@Lucyliesinashes : wow just because you think you're so smart doesn't mean you have to bash singers who've worked really hard to get where they are. I bet you worked hard to get your degrees and I'm positive that Chenoweth did too. And on YouTube nontheless? Get a LIFE. I like this video, the cast did a very nice job :)
