Personally, I applaud Ambrose for taking the initative to take care of herself. We should be talking about our health more, and I think Rigg's initial response showed that she's from a different time when performers were expected to power through and hurt themselves.

I'm still so underwhelmed by Band's Visit. I really wanted to love it, and of course it should win compared to the competition (though I didn't hate Mean Girls nearly as much as everyone else on here does). I don't know, I'm just not the audience for it, I guess.
This production was SO lovely-- I'm very excited. I wish we could get a recording of Grand Hotel as well (the voices were wonderful and there's just so much cut from the original cast recording).
Some interesting choices; I hope they reinstate the songs they trimmed from the previous out-of-towns. I personally love the focus on the adults, and disliked how chipper/Matilda they made Mary in the DC/Seattle, etc. version.
I find it interesting the ads are highlighting Matt Doyle as Albert given the size of the role.
