Matilda - Broadway/America - May 15, 2014 - Matinee
Paige Brady (Matilda), Betsy Struxness (u/s Mrs. Wormwood), Colin Israel (u/s Escapologist), Heather Tepe (swing u/s Betsy Struxness’s track), Scott Difford (swing u/s Colin Israel’s track), Sofia Roma Rubino (swing u/s Lavender), Marcus D’Angelo (swing u/s Eric), and current cast.
Recorded from front side orchestra, very near the stage and a large speaker. Paige’s microphone didn’t come on for the first line of Quiet but because I was so close you can still hear it. The new full time Escapologist/Escape Artist has not started performing yet, so the show is currently rotating understudies in that role.
Matilda - Broadway/America - May 22, 2014 - Matinee
Paige Brady (Matilda), Garett Hawe (u/s Michael**), Travis Waldschmidt (u/s Rudolpho**), Scott Difford (swing u/s Taylor Trensch's ensemble track**), Colin Israel (swing u/s Philip Spaeth's ensemble track**), Sofia Roma Rubino (swing u/s Lavender), Marcus D’Angelo (swing u/s Eric), Geoff Packard (Escapologist), and current cast.
The baby cry sound effect went off at the very beginning of Miracle, and there were a couple of tiny line flubs. Again, Paige’s mic didn’t come on for the first line or so of Quiet, but it is still audible since we were sitting pretty close in the orchestra. The audience was noticeably loud in person, but it is barely perceptible on the audio. Several ensemble tracks were split at this performance: Garett Hawe and Scott Difford each did parts of Garett's usual track and parts of Taylor Trensch's ensemble track, while Travis Waldschmidt and Colin Israel did the same with Travis's and Philip Spaeth's usual tracks.
Matilda - Broadway/America - June 8, 2014 - Taylor Trenschs and Sawyer Nunes Last Show
Gabriella Pizzolo (Matilda), Jennifer Bowles (u/s Miss Honey), Celia Mei Rubin (u/s Acrobat), Sawyer Nunes (swing u/s Bruce), Natalie Venetia Belcon (t/r Mrs. Phelps), and current cast.
Taylor Trensch's and Sawyer Nunes' last performance. This show was so great and special for Taylor and Sawyer's last. Gabby was very cute and very easy to understand as Matilda. Jen Bowles plays Miss Honey quite differently from Jill Paice, so it was exciting and refreshing to see her on in the role. There are at least two other audio recordings from this performance
Matilda - Broadway/America - July 2, 2014 - Matinee
Ava Ulloa (Matilda), Lesli Margherita (Mrs. Wormwood), Matt Harrington (Mr. Wormwood), Chris Sieber (Trunchbull), Jill Paice (Miss Honey), Alex Brightman (Michael Wormwood), Natalie Venetia Belcon (Mrs. Phelps), Timothy Tv Cao (u/s Tommy), et al.
Recorded from front orchestra and very clear as usual. Ava seemed a little off her game at this performance and struggled with a couple lines.
Matilda - Broadway/America - July 5, 2014 - Matinee
Ripley Sobo (Matilda), Lesli Margherita (Mrs. Wormwood), Matt Harrington (Mr. Wormwood), Chris Sieber (Trunchbull), Jill Paice (Miss Honey), Alex Brightman (Michael Wormwood), Natalie Venetia Belcon (Mrs. Phelps), Marcus D’Angelo (u/s Eric), et al.
Recorded from the balcony, but surprisingly good sound and clarity. Ripley was excellent and is my new favorite Matilda. She really has a different take on the role than the other girls and does not deliver her lines exactly like the rest of them, as the other three seem to fall in to doing.
