The Vineyard is having issues with their plumbing which I hear affects the rest rooms in the foyer and which wouldn't be resolved in time for the GIGANTIC season.

That's not entirely true. Hugh didn't create the role in Australia and the original star Todd McKenney was only passed over for the Broadway production when Hugh, by then a name performer in the U.S., became available.

He was attached to GIGI for a while as Honore. I think that might be it.

It was a health crisis in Debra's family. Her absence was unavoidable.
But Kathryn Meisle was indeed wonderful in the role.

A Tale of Two Dollys Sep 1
2013, 11:25:11 AM
Stage Door Sally, that scene with Dolly and Ernestina at the parade was written for the film. It may have been added in other productions but in the script "Miss Money" is a mannequin who is dismantled in front of Horace's horrified eyes as he cries "Put that girl back, I paid for her and I want all the parts." Dolly explains that Ernestina was otherwise engaged lending money to the Mint. In the Cape Cod version the "Miss Money" who appeared in the parade was a tall beautiful blonde woman who ex

Judy Davis is actually an inspired idea, and she's a belter from way back having played PIAF in Australia.

Michael Rupert was a really solid center to the show when he replaced John Rubinstein in the original Broadway production. Very funny and charming and, of course, that knockout voice.

Rita Moreno was unhappy about winning Featured Actress: Video Jul 30
2013, 12:18:10 PM
William Daniels who played the lead in "1776" declined the nomination altogether rather than be placed in the Featured Acor category which he most likely would have won. And as I recall Dick van Dyke was in the Featured category for BYE BYE BIRDIE. it's all very strange.

Another rave, this time from Peter Filichia at Kritzerland.Com
As Rudolph Says, “Mrs. Levi! She’s back!” – This Time at Goodspeed
Why must two-and-a-half hours pass before Ephraim Levi sends a sign to his widow Dolly that says he’ll permit her remarriage? Now I finally understand. He doesn’t need time to adjust to the situation; he’s been watching Dolly’s adventures along with the rest of us, and he’s not going to prematurely stop what Walter Kerr accurately called “a musical c
