I agree with you totally. I personally think Menzel is overrated. I've seen her during her stint at Rent and thought she was an average voice for Broadway. I'm impressed with Espinosa's voice though.
Another voice that I'm loving right now is Maria Friedman. She is just brilliant in The Woman in White. I do believe that that musical is ALW's best since Evita.
