It's so great that Marin Mazzie, who I really think is one of our greatest Broadway talents and just seems like overall an amazing human being, is in high spirits despite her very, very serious illness 
. I really hope she can pull through this.

"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Per Jason's tweet earlier today, Marin is in remission!

Ovarian cancer has a very high remission rate. Unfortunately, it also has a very high relapse rate (around 70%). Having personally lost a beloved family member and a close friend to this horrible cancer, and another friend who is currently in the end stages, I hope that Mazzie is able to remain in that 30%. I wish her and Mr. Danieley nothing but the best.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
