Not for the Life of Me – Thoroughly Modern Millie




These are just a few of my very favourites that have been in this show!

Sutton Foster Sutton Foster. I first saw Sutton in the ensemble of The Scarlet Pimpernel on Broadway, and though she didn’t have a lot to do there, I paid attention every time I heard her name after that. I never saw her in Les Mis, but I’d heard great things about her Eponine, so I was really looking forward to seeing her as Millie, and she is just fantastic. SUCH a huge voice. 🙂 And the ability to be a winning heroine without being over-the-top sweet, which can be a pretty tricky thing. I just think she’s fantastic, and can’t wait to see her in more shows! Find out more about Sutton at Sutton Foster Online.
Gavin Creel. Like Sutton, I’d seen Gavin in the ensemble of a show before, but I wouldn’t have known that if I hadn’t read it in his bio. 🙂 However, the fact that I wasn’t really familiar with him may even have been an advantage, because he was completely fresh, and wonderful as Jimmy. He has a lovely voice, and really worked well with Sutton. Check out Gavin Creel Online to find out more.

Marc Kudisch Marc Kudisch. Unlike the other two leads, Marc is someone that I was really familiar with before this show, although I had never seen him live on stage before. I just adore his voice, and I was thrilled to learn that his live performance is more than equal to the recordings! He was easily my favourite part of the show. To learn more about Marc, take a trip to DAAM: The Marc Kudisch Website.
Jessica GrovĂ©. Another person I’d be wanting to see for a while! I heard lots of great things about Jessica after Notre Dame de Paris in Las Vegas, and, though she doesn’t get a lot of chances to showcase her talent in this show, it’s obvious that it’s there! There is a lot more information about Jessica at Jessica GrovĂ© Online. Jessica GrovĂ©
