Melissa Errico Continues Blog; Talks Exit from CSC's PASSION and More!

Broadway veteran Melissa Errico announced early last month that she would be undergoing a surgery to repair a blood vessel on her vocal chord. In April, Errico had to depart the Classic Stage Company production of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's Passion to go on vocal rest. The singer has started a blog to document her experiences and continues now with her fourth post.

Errico writes: "This is a hard chapter to begin. Because in a way I never moved from that moment. A text from Giorgio that I am not coming back. I am still moving my feet, like pushing my feet forward in my shoes each day, but my mind and my soul are just stuck in that thought. I was not allowed back."

Errico teases the next part with: "Read Blog 5 for Park Avenue, longing and a lie that wasn't".
