Some Fun Finds

The multi talented Leslie Kritzer played Shelley, one of the "Nicest Kids in Town" in  2004, but had the opportunity to understudy Tracy Turnblad.  Here is a recording of her rendition of Hairspray's opening number "Good Morning, Baltimore."


Leslie Kritzer, with minimal rehearsing and little notice, went on as Paulette in Legally Blonde.  Orfeh, who rarely calls out, was sidelined for sickness and because of her stellar attendance record, understudies Amber Efe and Gaelen Gilliland's costumes were not prepared.  Kritzer could fit the costumes and was given the opportunity to shine in a bigger role.  Here, she sings "Ireland."


Best friends and former Wicked costars Megan Hilty (Galinda) and Shoshana Bean (Elphaba) switched roles for the night in the Meg n' Sho Wicked Swap.
