So that article says that Laura bell bundy and lauren zakrin are "alternating" in the role...Does that mean they are splitting it half and half, or is it still true that LBB is "picking" the schedule? Is it ever going to be announced who is doing what shows or is it just going to depend on the day and they are just going to play it by ear?

" . . . the taking of photographs or use of any recording devices is strictly prohibited . . . "

I think that says it all. And if it came from the sound board . . . then there's an employee who's sharing something that's not supposed to be.

Personally, I don't care, I'm just saying . . . .

Blog confirms Rhiannon will be back in time for her Elle..
"This week: LBB is on except the SAT MAT and all day SUN.

St Louis Week 1: Its all Lauren and Rhiannon is coming back
( LBB is judging Ms America in Vegas)"

Lauren:
The shows I am playing Elle in are as follows:

January 17th Matinee, January 18th Both, January 21, 22, 23, 24 Both, 25 Both, January 29 Matinee, January 31 Matinee

February 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Both, 8 Both, February 10, 11, 12, 14 Matinee, 15 Matinee, 21 Matinee, 22 Matinee, and February 24.

Hope this finally answers all those questions! Updated On: 1/17/09 at 11:24 PM

wtf that is not "alternating" in the role. that would mean laura bell bundy will perform a whopping like 1/8 of the shows throughout this 6 week time period where she was announced to be a replacement...

i dont know but something doesn't seem right here. I don't think they would advertise that she is coming back to the tour and yet only perform about 10 shows throughout her 6 week run.

She's just helping out Lauren though, she's very busy so chose the days she could go on. I'm assuming she's got a lot of other things going on, (i.e. Judging Ms. America, the workshops, etc.)

Besides, even though it's great LBB is back to help, I'm pretty sure whoever comes is excited to see either her or Lauren.

So I assume Becky will do the rest of the Des Moines shows?

i'd guess so.

I just made a youtube vid of Lauren singing So Much Better. search for it and u'll be able to find it, since i don't think we're allowed to link, correct?

Rhiannon's dates have been stripped, but she's obviously the only understudy until Becky is back.

Well, I know my daughters are going to be thrilled when we pull up to the Fox Theatre in St. Louis on January 30. But, now I know they're going to be thrilled even more to see LBB as Elle. I hadn't told them I bought the tickets before, so the double surprise will earn me major daddy points.

Well I'm excitedish...I really wanted to see Lauren as Elle.
Of course, I end up going on Januayr 31st..evening. So, I guess I'm seeing LBB. Which shouldn't be so bad, right? I enjoy Laura Bell. Plus, I'm used to hearing her voice, cause of the cast recording. Quick question, though, how is Laura Bell since she's been back? I know she's only done a few shows, but yeah, anyone seen her since she came back?
