The way she speaks about other actresses are so lovely. She is delightful!

she should have won for piazza and bridges originally. But I'm still very happy that she has her award for the king and i.

Love how Kelli refers to Laura Benanti as "Benanti".

[Abt]

She's my favorite. What a sweet, gracious adorable lady. My favorite musical involving my favorite lady 💜

The way she speaks about her characters is just beautiful. Love her!

"Maybe in the later years you can do Mother Abbess" I'm all "Bitch please! She should be Maria!"

Finally she received the Tony Award for The King and I in 2015

Kelli O'hara is proof that women can become more beautiful, charming, and stimulating after the first blush of youthful beauty wanes. 

How comical is it  when you see these lists of the world's most beautiful women and women like Kelli O'hara and Sutton Foster--just to name two among hundreds don't make the cut.

i truly don't understand how this show only lasted a few months. everyone loves it. was it lack of marketing or something?

After Peter Pan? I think the world can agree you're catching up with Audra.

I must start off by asking what the song at the beginning is - it sounds *really* good?! I'm working my way through the #ShowPeople interviews - I've loved all the ones I've seen so far. #JessieMueller mentioned #KelliOHara in her second SP & I'd never heard of her before (like SO many of these people! I'm in the UK with zero chance of ever getting to Broadway! 😭) - she's so nice! 😃 Then again, all theatre peeps seem to be & I'm including the people that I've met at #Curve in #Leicester. Just top people, the lot of them. 👌 Also, I think I'd seen #TheBridgesOfMadisonCounty musical mentioned somewhere, possibly in #TheStage, or on social media (really must try to see the film; it's made me want to see the film) & it looks really good from the snippet featured here. And Kelli O'Hara & #StevenPasquale look DAMN HOT together!!! 😁 👍 💜

Kelli performed at the Downtown Cabaret?! Must have been back when it was still an Equity theatre. I've performed there but it's non-equity now. Small world!

What is the name of the song that Kellie is singing as a duet at the beginning of this video, I'd LOVE to find it to hear it in its entirety?!?!
