Well, but it is also the director's job to help the actor craft a performance, whether that means subtle notes and hints for an experienced thespian, or providing line readings for a tyro. It seemed like Underwood didn't get much direction (beyond the 300 separate pieces of blocking in her opening number) and so I don't judge her too harshly.

I mean, the producers and the director knew she was an inexperience actor going into this, so she would probably need a lot of extra work. It didn't look like anybody really took the trouble with her.
