Eder sells out everywhere she performs. That and what I think was probably a nice divorce settlement, allow her to take good care of her voice and pick & choose where she sings.
As others have already said, she still sings the songs, 25+ years later, with the same gusto. Hits all the notes. Holds all the notes. It's still thrilling. And no one has better mic technique.
Her 54 Below shows are great, but it's still wonderful to hear her wi

FYI, your wording is offensive, perhaps better worded would have been:“how a non-trans woman (or cis-woman) would tackle this role,” since Peppermint is a woman.&quo
Hearing him sing in this show makes my ears glaze. There's no fire in his voice and frankly, I could do with a lot less musical theater vibrato and more straight tone.
Whatever happens, this show has a built-in audience. It'll be critic-proof methinks.
The same thing happens on airplanes. America has no self-control and everyone is now expected to accept obesity as the new normal. It's not.
I'd have bolted and talked to the house manager about swapping for another performance. A fat person should realize how tightly packed broadway houses are and pick their seat accordingly. If you know you're going to spill into the seat next to you, go the Southwest Airlines route and buy two seats.
If you've got tickets to one of her upcoming symphony dates, this is nearly the identical show you're going to see. I saw her a couple of weeks ago in Dallas and aside from Groff and Roberts, that was her show.
Her encore was Gimme, Gimme. And while the audience loved it, I felt she's now employing a wide variety of vocal tricks to get the song out. It's not balls-out belting like it used to be.

You mean Ambrose is playing Eliza as a woman who's weighing her every word because she's trying very hard to improve her way of speaking?"
I'm not totally sold on Ambrose, but the rest of the production is top-notch. Paton, for me, steals the show, creating a perfectly natural, believable Higgins. His singing is fine. His acting is superb. The cadence of his delivery was what truly made me enjoy watching him. Ambrose could learn a thing or two from his quick cue pickups and ability to find comedic moments in the script.
I don't see an issue here. He called crap, crap. He spoke the truth.
Parrothead opinions on Broadway theater/critics is a nearly laughable thought. The majority of the folks I've met who love JB are also those I have little to say to for being Trump supporters.
I hope this show closes quickly and the talented cast finds jobs in better, longer running shows.
