I have watched her "age" with grace from her Tony Award winning performance as a teen in Miss Saigon, to Eponine in Les Miz, and now Fantine in Les Miz. I also think she was a perfect choice for the Disney films that she sang for, and she has that special talent where her voice can be powerful and effortless at the same moment. Enjoy the night... it's one of the all time classics with an all time great (ok I am biased but I also think I am right). And I suppose Nick Jonas won't be that bad to look at either! Quote
