Yay. The Weisslers are on a role.

She's coming straight from the London company. She will be Given's Velma.

Another blonde Velma.. yes!

They may have given her a Montanaro wig for the UK tour, but she's no Anna. Infact, she's not even Ute. More like Lisa Leguilo ;)

In Ldn, they gave her a new short blonde wig, just like those on her promotions, which is VERY good! It's very fierce, and sexy! She's definitely a Velma to see! SO excited for you guys!

Amra's voice is alright, nice belts but quiet at times. And her dancing is wonderful. Her dancing is ok too. She's a fab Velma (even though still not my fav!) You guys'll love this blonde Velma!

The short hair is her own. I think she looks like the late Paula Yates.

I was just coming over to the forum to post about this! I'm so proud that a South African actress went from the South African production of the show, to London and, now, to Broadway. I saw here in the SA production and she was absolutely fantastic.
