I think josh was picked for his very good looks and not his singing, I kept thinking during the show, aren't there loads of Latinos dying for a chance on Broadway with a better voice. I thought it might be the night I saw him, but others have posted similar issues. But he is really nice on the eyes. Andrea burns did have a large part and was terrific.

Do a few searches on YouTube and you'll find lots of interviews with Emilio.

The choice of voice/accent baffled me.

And got in the way of understanding much of his dialog.

But the choice is deliberate as Josh Segarra has a very clear voice with no heavy accent.

I'm surprised Gloria and Emilio have let this direction stand,

I liked his husky voice for some reason AND he got to deliver that stirring rant that got enormous applause when I saw it.

Not memorable as Jersey Boys but very entertaining and some great numbers...
