    So, I thought Karen as Vanessa was wonderful, but Karen as Anita? BRILLIANT.
    I'm SO glad she got the Tony. That woman deserves it. Fierce as hell.

    I'm so glad Karen won, I wanted them to win best revival too, still think they were better than Hair, but whatever.
    Karen makes an amazing Anita, I wished I lived in New York so I could see this cast. I'll end up seeing the touring one if I'm lucky.

    THIS is what Broadway is supposed to be like! . forget the tv shows & b-movies as musicals ideas. Favorite show, favorite song from it. What a rousing performance! Broadway needed this!

    Wow she's fantastic!!!! I really like her but I don't always know what to think because sometimes she sounds amazing ( like now ) but other times she doesn't sound...well...as good... :S
    But I'm so glad she got the Tony yay!!!

    I think Karen brings her originality to this role and it's intriguing, however, i think she misses the mark on dance... there are numerous moments in this clip alone where she is not executing the choreography to the maximum like the ensemble girls. That being said, I'm sure she will win the Tony, her reviews have been outstanding.
