She has also been one to always say that if she goes out seeking something, it never works out for her, so she has learned to trust the universe and let projects come to her. Seems to have worked for her so far.

I wonder if she was ever approached to write a memoir like Patti LuPone did not too long ago. I'm sure she has great stories to share, especially about her personally life;how she grew up, dealing with the loss of her husband, Steve Martin, or if she ever wanted children or regrets not having one etc. I'm sure it would

I’m good with any of these too! As long as we get her back on the stage!

She is definitely doing more concerts, she already has 5-6 dates set that I have seen. And not really at smaller venues either. Segerstrom, Walt Disney Concert Hall, other symphonies. I have tickets to see her in 2019. I expect as various houses release their seasons, and subscription series, more will pop up.
I would love to see her back on Broadway, and think (hope) she will if/when the right thing comes up. I’d really like to see her do a straight play.

This is amazing casting! I would love to see this show in NY whether off broadway or not. I missed the original, and I’ve always kicked myself for that. I also agree that enough has changed since 2004 that this could have an easier time finding an audience now.

It’s so interesting to read the different reactions to the show from here to other places online (where many love it). I’m hoping to go next weekend to see it and see which side I fall on lol.

He really does! There’s only once inthe show, when Cornelius says that he will use the word “pudding” and Barnaby questions “pudding?” back to him, that I hear his British accent slightly! And that took quite a few times of seeing him to pick up on that.

I prefer the front of the balcony over the back of the mezz. Front mezz is perfect!

There were 7 standing ovations in the orchestra, including standing for just about all of the Title number. After we stood the second time, we just didn’t sit down. Absolutely amazing afternoon, many years from cast and audience alike. There was extra love for all of the cast, and it truly felt like a closing of the show rather than just their last. Still processing all the feelings!
Friends of ours can’t come to the show now, so we are taking their tickets which are a tad closer. We have two Row O center orchestra on the aisle. Open to selling together or separately, below face value.
*missed an important word there. Below face value - feel free to inbox an offer. I don’t want to see them go to waste, and don’t think they will exchange them at this point.

I was just thinking this same thing! I might try to see it the weekend I’m going to see Bette when she returns. Only 3 more Dolly shows for me, and I truly love a show that fills you with joy like so many have said of SB.

Sarcasm can definitely be hard to tell in text. Enjoy your trip and the show!
His post was sarcastic. Broadway Barks is held between shows with actors from other shows coming on stage between 5-6:30. Not everyone does Broadway barks from the casts, so Anthony not being at Bway Barks does not mean he won’t be in the show that day, just as much as it doesn’t mean the actors at broadway barks won’t be. I’m not up to date on scheduled vacations for HP, but I’m sure someone here might be!
