OBSESSED!: Haven Burton Has Total Eclipses of the Brain and Legs

www.playbill.co... Haven Burton joins Seth Rudetsky in studio for the latest episode of OBSESSED! Seth is ready to roll with the Off-Broadway production of his comedic jukebox musical "Disaster!" and it just so happens that Burton is his newly-cast leading lady. She tells the tale of her own onstage disaster during her days in "Shrek the Musical" when her mind wandered just a wee bit. Then she recreates her "Disaster!" audition, which required that everyone in the room close their eyes so that she could secretly set up a big comedic reveal during her performance of a tune from "The Little Mermaid."

OMG SHE PLAYED GINGY IN SHREK. SHE WAS THE ONE THAT SANG THAT RIFF AND IT CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER

[@dfnkjaws]

RIGHT?!? incredibly sexy!

[@aaronford2184]

"Feeeeet!!" Literally laughed so hard I drooled on myself. Then she took me on an emotional roller coaster. Kudos!

[@CongressAdmin]

I can hold it together until 5:30, and then I just lose it. Her riffs and voice are so huge, flawless, and controlled. And she’s SITTING! So impressive.

[@stephenvalentinemusi]

This is something that I don't like when people do this to everyone who can belt high and riff....but I genuinely think she would be a good Elphaba.

[@inlovewithJLT]

God, I want to hear her sing "Total Eclipse of the Heart" now!

[@austinwolfe3120]

I about peed myself when she sang FEET omg

[@emmapartin1513]

Love the ending riff

[@gomezaddams42]

I saw her in Shrek as Fiona when she went on tour. I think she would make a killer Ariel.

[@RockStarHouseBand]

Like the preacher's daughter or the mermaid?

[@veronicabudde9737]

RockStarHouseBand I'm assuming that person meant the mermaid Ariel because in this video Haven was singing from The Little Mermaid.

[@RockStarHouseBand]

Thank you for answering the question

[@stevmar96]

Haven needs to play Elphaba like NOW! Just create the 3rd National tour of WICKED, you already have your lead Elphaba and get Sierra Boggess to play Glinda. It's that simple.

[@JRipley15]

Ew. No. Not saying she can't play Elphaba, and I LOVE wicked, but I'm definitely sure that there are new projects that she could spend her time on, rather than staying in the past. Again, don't bite my head off, Wicked's great, but it's becoming more of a classic than a new thing. I guess that's just me though, I love innovative, new musicals more often than older ones. 10 years is getting up there in the "old" category, in my opinion.

[@JacobWay-White]

Better believe it. And I'm right with you. And I know who should play the wizard, Michael Crawford. Who's with me

[@vglegorreta]

I want a tour where the actresses playing Glinda and Elphaba alternate the roles nightly. Sierra and Haven would be perfect for that.

[@dfnkjaws]

I think riffs and runs are some of Haven's greatest strengths as a singer/preformed!

[@musicaltheatrefan2k226]

I want Haven to play Barbara Maitland in Beetlejuice.
Bonus - 3:12 "Look at this stuff…"
"…God, it's depressing."

[@realethanangell]

Fun fact! Haven Paschall has blue eyes, which is the same color as a beloved character in the Pokémon Anime, Serena!

[@lalachristy5581]

I thought it was green. But you're right they're blue. She looks a lot like Serena

[@Drummer_Ilham]

Bloom from Winx Club: World Of Winx had blue eyes as well just like Serena from Pokémon and Haven Paschall herself!😊❤

[@broadwaymike92]

I saw Haven in RENT on Broadway as Mark's Mom!! She's so talented and can't wait to see her in HOW TO DANCE IN OHIO!!

[@PowellMansfield]

HOW DARE. This is the best thing I've ever seen. YASSSS HAVEN #FEET

[@asy0uw1sh]

I love this episode and I am mesmerized by her enormous talent!

[@jacobbuczak3998]

So looks so much different then in legally blonde. I️ love her so much so beautiful.

[@BottleConcreteBlond]

Very funny.
Have you noticed that "Part of Your World" and "Somewhere That's Green" are kind of the same song.

[@bway_car08]

Alan Menken wrote both of those songs :)

[@vglegorreta]

"WHATSA FIRE?!" 😅

[@jacobkeppler1984]

She is a great singer 👏👏👏

This red lipstick is far too much, put the accent where it should not be.

[@JhonathanFree]

All these Broadway people sound the same. Boring.
