For my two cents, I thought Audra was the most well-acted Rose, creating a real character arc - not just the “bull in a China shop” from the last note of the overture that we often see. I thought her approach to the racial realities of her character during that period were well-articulated. Her and George C. Wolfe really worked that into this production masterfully and it added new layers I appreciated. Unfortunately, I don’t think Audra is the most well-sung Rose, the transitioning in her voice frequently took me out of the story. But her Rose’s Turn, which was powered more by acting than clean singing, was thrilling and might be my favorite. Not my favorite revival or lead performances of the year, but a very solid and respectful entry!

Colbert tapes the same day that they air, generally.

true, it's as if these leads no longer can handle doing 2 shows on Wednesday or Saturday especially during TONY seasonas many are calling out for the matinee"

She’s out tonight as well. Just got the email from Telecharge.

Oh man.  I hope she is ok.  I am sure all actors hate when they have to miss.
