its eerie how exactly she sounds like billie

I love Audra. After seeing this show. I'm convinced there's nothing she can't sing.

Give it to her. Give her anything she wants. Astonishing. Can't wait to see it.

One of the best performances EVER!

This woman can sing anything. Love it!

I saw this the Thursday before the Tonys. I was skeptical!! But from the first note..she WAS Billie Holiday!! Blew me away!!! So well deserved, her Tony. She worked hard!! But...she did Billie proud!!!

She's the best. Classic, talented, living legend and a history maker.

Wow. I couldn't imagine her doing Billie Holiday but WOW!

You’d never think that this actress was a lyric soprano. Audra is fantastic.

Had the chance to see her in London, probably the best performance I’ve ever seen.

God she is amazing! Is there anything she can't do? Let's make some history this tony season, she's going to get that 6th one with this role

it was an excellent play ! Ioved it in 2014. Audra deserved her sixth Tony for this one. My cousin, Shelton Becton was in the play as the pianist Jimmie Powers

omg, is this really her voice?! :O what an amazing job she did

I was there. went to NYC just for this show.

WHOA. Can't wait to see this on HBO

She is incredible!

I remember seeing this in passing while I was flipping through channels on TV back in 2016. It's one of the only times in my whole life where I can say I was magnetized from switching channels again. This is one of those few performances where actress is gone and character has completely emerged, if only in her singing. She sounds so pinpoint-perfect like Billie Holiday. Such an amazing achievement in acting, and the Tony was completely deserved.

Woah. Audra for the WIN. I am completely in awe of the woman.

Holy crap! Ho-lee cah-rap!!! Audra! AUDRA!

Audra played that role so good

Just amazing! Close your eyes......she is Billie!

She really studied Billie, Billie told the story of how she want kids and house in a interview.

Between Audra McDonald and Cherry Jones this year I think, both are deserving, but I really want Audra! haha

I saw this on HBO. Now many entities make me turn away from March Madness! Her performance was superb!

Beautiful - how does she do that?

Diana who?

OMG it's like she's LITERALLY possessed by the spirit of Billie Holiday!!! Is she freaking kidding me?!!!

That is in any freaking way Miss Billie Holiday in spirit present and possessed Audra McDonald.

Audra has just brilliant voice, educated, trained to perfection, and performing Billie PERFECT! She can sing everything she wants... But, she can not sing that sorrow in Billie's voice. Sorry, but if I have to choose, I choose Billie, with all her imperfections, but with more sorrow and emotions in her voice! Lets be clear - Audra is just a PERFECT singer, but Billie is... Billie... ❤❤❤

She looks like Ibtihaj Muhammad.

she sounds drunk when she's on tv when she talks 92nd walks

Blasphemy. I cannot deal.

Love her voice and script but not enough research done. Billie Holiday did not like children, at all and she never wanted children. Research is very important.
