If Bernadette stays, then there is a 100% chance I will fly to LA to see it. If she doesn't stay, there is a 99.9% chance I will go.

I'll probably see the show in LA. I wonder if they'll change BP's dress again. With each new city a new "Sally" dress. : )

Yes!!! I'll get to see it!!...and I'd been avoiding the cast recording because I never saw Follies before, and didn't want to get spoilers. Thanks for sharing the news!

I assume you're joking . But, the dress was changed because the red dress was COMPLETELY wrong for Sally, creating quite the controversy on the message boards, and was even noted by some critics. They didn't change it for fun, lol.

The Broadway dress is perfect.

It is *now*. In previews, that red number was so totally wrong as to be unbelievable.

I'm not a huge fan of this production, but keeping any Sondheim alive is a good thing.

For something like this, about how long does it normally take for an official announcement to be made regarding the cast members?

The red dress was only seen in DC. Bernadette was wearing the new pink dress by the first preview in NYC.

>> "The red dress was only seen in DC. Bernadette was wearing the new pink dress by the first preview in NYC."

You're right. I saw it in DC and made the assumption that they brought it to NY and changed it during previews. My error.
