I am dying to see this 🥲 I love Megan Hilty. I’ve heard Michelle is great vocally in the role but her acting is the weakest between the leads. Her song sounds like a standout from what they’ve released so far.

Yeah, I heard the same about her acting, but tbh I'll never get to watch this show so I can just pretend her amazing vocals on the song are representative of her performance lol.

I love Hilty! Sort of wild that initially it was Chenoweth in her role and purportedly Scherzinger in Williams'.

If you go in with the expectations of just having a light hearted night at the theatre, you’ll have a good time.

It’s much campier than the film- since it’s a musical- but Megan makes it worth watching. Despite what anyone says about her acting or singing (on any given day), she is THE show and brings it the entire time.

Michelle’s voice is amazing but she couldn’t act her way out of a paper bag. And also can’t walk in heels.

But the show is so much fun. Megan is amazing!! Chewing alllll the scenery. All 3 of the mains are and I had so much fun. It’s basically just a laugh riot for 2.5 hours.

Wow Michelle Williams looks great. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her look this good.

Michelle's been in the theater scene for ages, and I am glad she is back in Broadway. In a way, glad it is not for the 2 main roles, I think with her acting range, this casting works for her. Also saw Megan Hilty live a few years back and she is so amazing.

I love that the Destiny's Child girls with Mama Tina always support each other. <3 Michelle must've killed the song because I love her voice so much.

I love that Megan used a condensed version of Meryl’s wiki for her Playbill bio 😂

Pretty sure Isabella Rossellini was part of my sexual awakening in this movie.

I really want to see this, heard the staircase scene is fun.

LOL wait, that playbill bio sounds amazing!
