Day 47-1/5/10

Show: Spring Awakening
Date: 10/7/08
Type: Audio
Cast: Hunter Parrish, Alexandra Socha, Morgan Karr, Emma Hunton, Caitlin Kinnunen, Amanda Castanos, Andrew Durand, Gabe Violett, Blake Daniel, Matt Doyle.

Alexandra: Her biggest problem for me is making her voice higher to sound younger. It doesn't work and isn't necessary. I was most impressed in The Guilty Ones, she sounded truly pretty. Everything else was pretty much the same.
Hunter: I just don't like him. His voice is all wrong for me.
Morgan: Such a beautiful voice, but every time he spoke real lines all I thought was "why is Ernst having Moritz's lines?" Just because he is a great singer doesn't mean he should cover the role.
Emma: For once she didn't sound "sexy" in Dark I Know Well. Instead she sounded haunting and lovely. But she went back to sounding sexy in Blue Wind. She was pretty good in Song of Purple Summer.
Caitlin: In the radical scene she is pretty much awful. It's as if she's trying to say all of her lines as loud and fast as she can. But in My Junk itself she's somewhat softer and smoother. She was a little bit better in the secret scene as well.
Amanda: My favorite part is when she says "For god's sake, papa beat me enough as it is?" she sounds so urgent and worried that she accidentally blurted it out. Everything else was pretty
good.
Gabe: I just never notice him.
Blake: He's great, as usual.
Matt: All kinds of fantastic. He really just sounded so on. Word of Your Body Reprise was absolutely fantastic, I was starting to feel seduced. His line in Totally Fucked was absolutely incredible and he was great in My Junk. There were a few other moments where I thought I could hear him; Mirror-Blue Night, I Believe, possibly Song of Purple Summer.

This was recorded in the front row, so Song of Purple Summer sounded unbelievably cool. You could hear a bunch of beautiful harmonies as they moved around.
