For those who didn't see the earlier announcement: her father-in-law died. That's why she is out.

Any reports from the matinee?
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

Yes, those performances are this weekend - not yesterday and today.

Just a guess, but she decided to spend more time with her husband and the family...that being more important than the show. Again, just a guess.

Appears Audra is back tonight.
A Chorus Line revival 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. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

However, I think Danny is out tonight, from what I've heard.

has Danny missed a show yet? Curious who's on for him? Kober or Joe Osheroff?

Audra is indeed on (and on fire).
Maybe someday I'll write up an actual post about this production. I was positive the first time, but seeing it again (and very close up this time) I think it's even better.
