I don't know whether to be happy or sad about this. I'm seeing the show for the first time in two weeks and I was looking forward to seeing Andrew. But I love Beth.

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
I'm not at all surprised by her leaving the show early. If you recall, BROADWAY.com's 'Ask a Star' series hosted an interview with Ms. Martin a few months back. In it, she was quoted as saying something along the lines of "Soon enough, I'll be an out-of-work actor, so please, come see the show now."
I was there yesterday afternoon and was completely shocked when Roger Bart said that it was Andrea Martin's final performance in addition to it being Sutton Foster's final performance. They were both fabulous in the show yesterday.
I was there yesterday too. The guy who ran the lotto said this is Sutton and Andrea's last performance, but then retracted and said just Sutton was leaving as if he had let the cat out of the bag. Sure enough though, Roger Bart announced that four cast members were leaving that day, including Andrea.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!
"Glad we saw it with everyone (except megan) in it."
Did you get Heather Ayers?

As much as I'd like to see Megan I'm curious about Heather in the role.

Odd. I'm glad I got to see her and the rest of the principals when I could. For as much flak as the show has gotten, I really did enjoy it and thought Andrea was one of the best parts of it. I wasn't wanting to go again, but Beth Leavel piques my curiosity! I may have to hit TKTS.
I fortunately saw Megan but not Roger Bart. I was disappointed. Megan was great.
