is anyone else here keeping up with “miss you like hell”? the cast album gets release monday (and i’ve had a countdown on my phone since it was announced) but i haven’t heard any buzz on it. thoughts?
I absolutely adored this show when I saw it last Spring, and hope it has a nice life in regional theaters. I think once more people get exposed to the cast recording, it'll make a bigger splash. It's a beautiful piece, and in a world with new jukebox musicals being announced weekly, or movies being adapted to the stage, it is super refreshing to see a show like this exist, and be of such wonderful quality.
When the cast album drops tomorrow, I really recommend everyone listen to it! Fantastic range of music, and the performances were so good. I do not cry at the theater - ever - but I cried at the finale of this last Spring.
I saw this twice at the Public and loved it. The cast was so heart warming. Yes, it has its flaws but what a great little piece of theater — perfect for this time in our country.
I also was a big fan of this piece when I saw it at the Public this past spring, and I’m excited to revisit it through the cast recording. It’s been one of my favorite musicals that I’ve seen this year.

Gizel sounds fantastic, as always."
daphne has this quality to her voice that makes you believe that all of it is real, and that’s really hard to have. she’s not too polished, and just the right amount of raw that most stars lack these days in return for the perfect belt.
gizel has a nice voice and i enjoy it but i prefer krystina as olivia, she’s much more angry while she sings, in my opinion. gizel has a voice that sound...small, if that makes sense?
but i prefer how she looked compared to krystina, not in a facial feature way, but in costuming. la jolla had olivia costumed as a regular emo teenager (dark eyeliner, plastic choker, bone straight hair, etc.) instead of how she was costumed at the public, like she was actually depressed, (messy hair, bags under her eyes, old baggy clothes, etc.).
i don’t know why they cut out some of the best songs? eat you up is a full on bop that was lost too soon lmao
