Are Crosby and Westenberg still married? The last I heard of her, she was Sally in a regional production of Follies a few years back. I want to say that Westenberg performs regularly at the Muny, but I could be making that up.

Kim Crosby and Robert Westenberg married one another and have several children. They now live in Springfield, Missouri where he teaches theater at Drury University. Crosby does regional theater from time to time and I believe that Westenberg has, for the most part, retired from professional acting.

A couple of years ago I read somewhere that Ben Wright had left acting to become an attorney but I don't know if that's accurate.

Oh I forgot about that production of FOLLIES. I wish I could have seen it, I heard great things about it.

Obviously I've got WOODS on my mind today. It's a shame concert versions/reunions of Sondheim's shows aren't done anymore, I would pay top dollar to see another reunion concert with this cast.

Kim Crosby was in "Follies" a few years back and I read an interview with her...I believe it was on Playbill.com but if you google her you should find it. I did read something about Westenberg possibly doing "Full Monty" at the MUNY a few years back but I don't know what came of it.

I always thought Crosby had charisma, presence and a beautiful singing voice. I'm surprised we didn't see more from her over the years.

But what Bout Winslow? Is she working at the Stuckey's off I95 selling Pecan Logs?

She's had a few movie roles - per imdb - but she seems to not work very frequently.

It looks like Pam Winslow also did infrequent TV/movie work in minor roles. According to imdb, in 2008 she had a lead role in a film called "Back to Me" as a Broadway actress whose life is impacted by the events of 9/11. Beth Fowler is also in the cast.

By the way, I think the Sondheim concert reunions stopped when Broadway revivals of his musicals kicked into high gear in the past decade (Night Music will be the 13th since 2000). I could be wrong in that assumption, but when most of the reunions occurred the shows were probably still too recent for a full-fledged revival. Just a guess.

Also, if you go to imdb you'll see that Pamela Winslow has had a few movie and tv roles.

I heard wonderful things about Kim Crosby's Sally, and would have been delighted to see her play the role. I know everyone gushes about Benanti, but I find Crosby's Cinderella to be definitive.

I never saw or (or even heard) anything from that production of Follies. All I know is that there was no Roscoe and Weismann sang "Beautiful Girls."
