There used to be an old thread on her, and decided it was appropriate to make a new one that was a little less scary :) oh - and rootleg-irriffic. (cookies to you who know what I'm talking about there).
Nevertheless! Julie Hanson played Christine for some time on the Tour, first as the Princess/Mirror Bride/Understudy, then as the Christine alternate, and then the Principal Christine all within a year or two starting way back in 2002.

Personally? Huge fan (some of you might say this is a bit of an understatement, but I'll take that with a grain of salt and plead the fifth :P) and she was an awesome christine from what I've heard and read from the not-so-legal and completely legal sources I have at my disposal. Nevertheless, I was quite happy to see she had a new site (see above) considering her
old site hadn't been updated in nearly a year. woo current news!
