She’s too young RN. Yzma should be older (I mean obviously makeup should be used to make her uglier).

As a violinist, I am super impressed that she can play so beautifully and sing with such emotion like that. What an amazing talent!

[@susanc6402]

I want to see Katrina Lenk do Morticia in a reivival of The Addams Family! (With Christian Borle as Gomez) :)

[@deborahbee7122]

Oh my god!! That casting would be perfect!!

[@laurenrogers]

IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS?!

[@monkeySkeptic]

I was at the MIscast benefit with a group of friends, and *everybody* agreed this was the high point of the evening. I bought tickets to see The Band's Visit the next day, just to see Katrina Lenk again. That play isn't the vehicle she deserves, but with the right platform, I bet we see a Tony Award for this woman.

[@SingOutAlexisLouise]

She is going to be Bobby in COMPANY and I think that'll be the one!!

[@williamwaldinger2153]

I actually thought that The Band’s Visit was brilliant; an evening in the theater that I’ll never forget. She was stunning...and I don’t care much for awards. I’m very much looking forward to Company

[@thelifeinpink]

Didn’t she win the Tony for the band’s visit?

[@MarthaGarvey]

Agreeeee

[@katesaranglao7089]

My bisexual bomb just detonated. Omg she makes this so funny and sexy at the same time. Her little kick, her laugh, her scatting, and her smoky voice. I LOVE IT. She added a French Noir flair to this otherwise Yiddish production.

[@gracieliz95]

The talent in the show this year is insane. I’m about to go become an expert on this woman because I have to know more.

[@DesmondaCathabel]

OK IM OBSESSED???!??

[@1southpawbass]

Okay, so at the beginning of this vid I scrolled through the comments and laughed at hetero gals proclaiming love. By the time she got to that back kick in those pink shoes, I was packing a small bag for my road trip. My mission: find Katrina Lenk and make her mine!!!

Katrina Lenk is such an exciting actress. Every single time I see her in something, I know that she's going to give a phenomenal performance.

[@stephpiano2908]

I've lost count of how many times I've watched this, it's probably already in the hundreds...

[@ethannavarro943]

Can I just say, my favorite part of this song is the simplicity of the way to sing it.

[@sarahboyle9436]

5:33 men-splaining! I love it! How did no one catch that?

[@ianlawrence1840]

Sarah Boyle FOR REAL THO. She did so many subtle, hilarious things that went over that most of audience's head lol

[@cbk532]

This is such a wonderfully nuanced performance. Just wow - she truly took this song to another level

[@jasonmero2245]

that one was obvious, there were also others more subtle making the whole thing ansolutely BRILLIANT. I think I’m in love;)

[@randallquad1045]

Not to be obtuse, but are these nuances just the general jokes and acting and stuff, or did I miss a long series of feminist bits?

[@thetravelgaygent]

I AM SCREAMING IN MY HOME. This is unreal.

[@taisgrim]

This version has a french air to it, love it!

[@machar6987]

Tais Grim have you ever heard a french song? This sounds a lot more like something in yiddish

[@rpvee]

Definitely Yiddish and Middle Eastern influenced.

[@cbk532]

No - I get what the original poster meant. Katrina has a kind of “la vie en rose m” feel about her and whole musically it definitely screams Yiddish, you get the French feel where her personality seeps into her performance. It really adds ANOTHER dimension to this awe-inspiring performance

[@taisgrim]

cbk0101 bk Thank you! Someone gets what I was saying

[@randallquad1045]

Can there be a remake of Fiddler wherein Katrina Lenk plays Tevye and also all of the other parts? Any other show would work, too. I’m not picky.

[@Jamie-pm5rm]

[@maxg.9300]

If anyone is in NYC, RUN to see her in Company. Her Bobbie is effervescent, charming, and endearing in a way no performer has been able to achieve. Between her and Sharon D. Clarke for “Caroline, or Change”, it’s going to be a very competitive Best Actress in a Musical Tony Award.

[@jennymurphy2666]

Does anyone else see her playing Eva in Evita?? I feel like she’d be perfect!

[@kim56]

this is like. a daily reminder that i am in fact a lesbian

[@chrisdeignan7097]

Katrina Lenk displayed that oh-so-rare electricity these comments note even in high school where she somehow gave an interpretation of Elizabeth Proctor in our Crucible that reduced husband John from noble protagonist to insufferable cheat. In our children’s theater Jungle Story, her Sher Khan, a panther all in leather, stole the show. I was honored to have her in my acting class as a sophomore and knew she would make her mark.

[@susanlehde1034]

Katrina is my first cousin on my mothers side. Do not really know her ... only from when she sang "Ave Maria" at my Aunt Lou's funeral (her grandmother, my Moms sister) in the late 90's. She's really come along way !!! Congrats, Katrina!! .... And be proud of your German heritage !!!

[@anne_bckmnn]

Sie hat deutsche Vorfahren? :)

[@mayaliffgens7542]

I can't decide if you're lucky because you have an excuse to know her, or if you're unlucky because you can't be in love with her.

[@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg]

Goddess. Love her warm, natural, unforced singing. She never sounds like she's just trying to show off her voice, the way so many modern singers do, and she doesn't throw in pop-singing mannerisms or scooping, the way even some young broadway performers are doing these days.
