I saw that Andrea Martin was playing Berthe in the national tour of Pippin in SF and LA. I can't find any info on whether she's continuing in the role. We will see Pippin in Washington, DC at the end of December. Does anyone know whether Andrea Martin is still in the tour cast? Thanks!

Lucie Arnaz is now playing Berthe. She is great in the role.

I saw the tour in Las Vegas about a week ago, and it was Lucie Arnaz. She was good, but I was really hoping to see Andrea Martin.

The night I saw Lucie... good, not great.

She seemed much more tentative and shaky than Andrea during the tricks. She didn't quite know how to wring laughs from the material the way Andrea did.

To be fair, it was in OC with not a great audience. And I'd seen Martin two times in the previous weeks and it's kind of unfair to compare.

"I saw the tour in Las Vegas about a week ago, and it was Lucie Arnaz. She was good, but I was really hoping to see Andrea Martin."

The press was very clear that Andrea was only on tour for two stops in California.
