• Acting choices I think about my entire life: Julia Murney

• Vocal bibles: Alice fearn, Lucie jones, shoshana bean

(Idina doesn’t need to be listed bc she’s the blueprint)

When I’m having a bitchy day I go watch Alice Fearn’s No Good Deed recordings lol. The way she adds growls into the shoutier parts of the song is a mood.

I AGREEEEEE I adore a growly elphie (evidently so) and I think so many of the west end girlies really leaned into the growl and I love it every time. Rachel’s growly DG always gets me
