Bernadette is no longer listed on the city center website for tomorrow night's Sondheim gala. Anyone know for sure?

I'd been told by sources close to the project that she was filming a movie and it might interfere with the concert.

I wonder who the special guests will be?

Reginald Tresilian and me.

We will be there with our bf's, and Sondheim personally requested that we do our version of "A Boy Like That"/"I Have a Love" in Pig Latin.

First I go:

A-hay oy-bay ike-lay at-that,
Oo'd-hay ill-kay or-yay other-btay!

Then he goes:

Oh-hay oh-no, Anita-hay, oh-nay!
Oo-yay ould-shay oh-nay ETTER-BAY!

It's a killer. Better than Bernadette any-hay ay-day!

That would be a bummer, but it'll be great either way. I am going to explode between now and this evening.

So Bernadette was indeed out tonight.

To sing the bit from Sunday ("Children and Art") presumably in her place, they flew Maria Friedman over. She was pretty good.

It's already over? What did Sutton Foster sing? Something from Anyone Can Whistle, I'm guessing?
