As an actress, she is perhaps best known for her stage work, on Broadway in Mamma Mia! as Sophie Sheridan, and in the original 2nd national tour cast of Wicked as the Elphaba standby. She became an internet sensation after her cover of the Radiohead song "Creep" went viral after it was picked up by Gawker Media, under the title "Eargasm".[2] The cover was performed at her album release party at Le Poisson Rouge in Greenwich Village.
