Cast: Kyle Riabko, Ace Young, Diana DeGarmo, Annaleigh Ashford, Josh Lamon, Rachel Bay Jones, Briana Carlson Goodman, Jeannette Bayardelle
Still not 100% about this cast. Ace is just not quite fitting. Kyle is pretty decentish. Jeannette was a fierce Dionne. I hardly even missed Sasha. Diana, I was iffy about. Maybe I shouldn’t have listened to this right after Addams Family because I thought Josh’s Maggie sounded like a younger version of Jackie’s Grandma. And omg, Rachel’s Buddhalirama sounded just like Grandma. And I’m still on the fence with Annaleigh. I feel like she’s pushing too hard. Trying to sing Air a little bit like Kacie. My biggest problem was sometimes in Air it didn’t even sound like she was singing, it only sounded like acting.

So I was kind of expecting to hate Kyle. I didn’t hate him. But I wasn’t absolutely in love. He’s really got potential and good characterization. Ace I was very iffy on. Berger is always annoying and crazy and all over the place and too much, but this might have been too too much. One thing I thought was cool was how they sing “transcendental meditation of the ocean of reality is love” rather than just speaking it. I’m torn on Annaleigh’s Jeanie. I think a piece of me loves her so that I wanted to love it, but I also read bad reviews so I was prepared to hate it. I’m a little neutral. I wish she had played it a little more naturally, it seemed like she was trying to hard at some parts. Diana was really interesting. She needs to tone it down just a little bit. But her singing was interesting. It was like a combination of all other Sheilas. I think I liked the new Woof. But wow, the new Hud was fine, but I missed Darius so much. Like seriously, he may be the one I missed the most. As weird as this may sound, I wasn’t quite as impressed with Josh’s Maggie as I have been. Maybe I wasn’t focused enough because he wasn’t an understudy this time, but it seemed a little more like Andrew’s; less connected.
