Miss Saigon High School style!

Hello, gorgeous fans! For years I have enjoyed watching videos of this High School production of Miss Saigon done back in 2008. There are many things that you can't believe when you watch these videos. One: A high school did a show about under age prostitution. Two: The shirtless guy playing Chris. Three: Some of the singing is actually really good. Elizabeth Judd, who plays Kim, also did a touring production of Spring Awakening as Wendla. Here are some of the videos. (I personally think I'd be a fabulous Kim...with color blind casting...)

Claire Moore: Unsung goddess?

Hello, gorgeous ones! There is a woman who I have always admired, but just recently was reminded of her supreme talent tonight. That woman is Claire Moore. Claire Moore is a British musical theater performer who is best known for being the ORIGINAL ORIGINAL Christine in Phantom (and can be heard on the concept recording singing Christine better than anyone ever could), Ellen in Miss Saigon and many others. What's shocking to me is that she has pretty much made her career as standby for some of the most famous leading ladies of the British stage, including Elaine Paige, but...she can sing them all under a table. Here are some videos of Claire Moore!
