Here I am, on a fiday night with new-to-me headphones bought off fb marketplace, catching up on ripping some of my cds, and when I open up the Broadway Musical of Beauty and the Beast cd, which I got from the library bookstore, I thought the signatures on the cd were fascimile since they were in gold pen, but as I looked closer, I saw they weren't perfect handwriting, and in slightly tilted positions on the disc, even covering some of the disc information..well, looking into the cd booklet at the names of some of the cast, I found out my cd was signed by Susan Egan (Belle) and Gary Beach (Lumiere)!! Woow❤❤ Sadly, Mr. Beach has passed, but I am so greatful to discover his music and performances for the first time (in 2024, no less). And Susan Egan, wow what a lovely voice as Belle... I never got to see many stage plays growing up, but now at 34, I try to see live music and theatre at least once a year. As mainstream media continues to devolve and regress away from the actual skill and talent of the musical arts, I'll stick to discovering real artists and performers like Susan Egan and Gary Beach, even if on the niche physical media of CDs. What a gem of a find. This just made my year and really makes me feel closer to the performers. I love this❤

Rest in Peace Tom Bosley (Maurice)😔🙏🏻
Love this, we saw Susan in late 2019 and she amazed and told fantastic show stories! Calamity Belle was her nickname, she broke bones twice onstage.
OMG this is so emotional for me, this was my first Broadway musical!
This is sheer joy and perfection ❤
Perfection…thank you for uploading this.
