I must say this has restored a lot of my faith in Karen having read her early reviews, heard some dodgy early audios and not enjoying her at WEL. Whilst this is still in my opinion far too riff-heavy (and at points sounds like she's imitating Amber on the OLCR) it is certainly powerful, passionate and most importantly in tune! Maybe I will check her interpretation of Effie out after all. Im glad your faith is restored! I have seen Karen 5 times and I can honestly say I have watched her journey on improving the way she sings some of her songs, although she's not perfect I've taken to her over Amber as she is not as well known! I can honestly say she is my favourite Effie!

I also have to get off my chest that I really find the new C.C White awful! I don't know if it's becuse Tyrone Huntley was truly amazing in his role but this new guy has got an average voice at that and his acting is REALLY REALLY bad - he tends to just stand still and comes across as cold and emotionless; he keeps his arms straight down and hardly moves. Tyrone did that too though didn't he. With that big grin on his face. I think it's the characterisation or something. I disagree, I found tyrone more relaxed and able to move around a little, C.C is meant to come across as friendly and young. But this new guy is almost glued to one spot and hardly even smiles! He's just left with one angry pout the entire show.

Saw Karen tonight as Effie and having seen her 4 times now, I can say tonight was the best performance of hers I've ever seen. While her And I Am Telling You is not the best I will admit, every other song is amazing! What makes Karen different is she just has the most beautiful voice and she adds riffs in here and there - her acting is also notably good. She has come a long way and deserves to be recognised as AN EFFIE ALTERNATE rather than Marisha taking all the lime light.
If your ever seeing Karen, you're in for a treat becusse her "I am changing" is the best out of the 3 effies

They say Nov 18th on the site but of course that could change?!? Where does it say this on the website? Been trying to figure out her final date

Just dont understand why Ruth was booted... Karen has totally improved though like WOW. She's really made the songs her own, her riffs are CRAZY.
