I'm thrilled that Bette is getting such glowing and well-deserved reviews. However, Carol Channing will always be my favorite Dolly.

There, I said it.

As my friend Ron said, a lot of actresses play Dolly, Carol IS Dolly.

How is te view from the balcony? I'm thinking of sitting there for a Donna Muprhy performance but don't know if an upgrade to the Mezzanine is worth it.

I sat up there during previews. I had a clear view of the stage.

For anyone who may have questions about the view from the extreme sides, I sat in the last seat in Orchestra row O (I think 25?), house left, and it was definitely partial view for some scenes. Whenever anyone was on the second level of the feed store, stage right, they were missed, as was most of the Cornelius table at Harmonia Gardens. Full view for Bette chowing down, though!

Wonderful news! I had the impression that it would be released in June. Great news on the early release!

After all these years.......

Why do Dolly and Ermengarde need 11 pieces of luggage on their train trip from Yonkers to NYC?

I could see Reba replacing Bette.

A Chorus Line played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013.

they tend to do that a lot here. They use us as source material, especially for pictures.

@Robbie  If I am not mistaken it was last weekend of previews.  Jane and Lily were in the city doing promotion for Grace and Frankie.

So it looks like CBS Sunday morning  and Colbert are the only appearances Bette will make pre Tonys?  Also; from what I see in social media it looks like they are getting a combination of two numbers at the Tonys.   Not necessarily together.

They should do Sunday Clothes it features more of the principals.   But I imagine CBS will insist on the title number.
