There was at least one other attempt at a mega thread that got dumped on so profusely that it must have been removed.

Also it is helping erase stigmas already cropping up for those who get infected.

Sharing public statements from those in the theatre world that have suffered from (and hopefully recovered from!) this terrible virus are fine. What to avoid is speculation on those that have not made their health situation public for one reason or another.

Brian Stokes Mitchell is recovering as well. He gave his lucky neighbors a show the other day by singing out his window!

That was awesome! Watched it after it happened.

This is exactly what I thought. If they are publicly sharing it is obviously fine to discuss

Thanks! I assumed from the title it was just about Aaron and thought a combined thread would be better than starting an individual one for each announcement.
As you can see in the first post, I provided links for both of my comments and am in no way attempting to speculate about a performer's health who has not spoken publicly about it.
Laura Bell Bundy is singing "So Much Better" from Legally Blonde in the post which I thought people here may enjoy. I first replied to a 2013 Laura Bundy thread, but that seemed to just get people replying to the original post from 2013, causing confusion.

I'm confused. What I've been able to read is that Sara posted some days ago that she is "fully recovered" and that Gavin has stated that he is "pretty sure" he has the virus. I may not have looked deep enough into Google, so I could be wrong, but I find nothing about "recovering". And maybe I'm not privy to your sources. I'm sure you'll agree that accuracy is important when we discuss health issues involving public figures.

Gavin wasn't tested, but he went into detail on Stars in the House about his experience, which led him to the assumption that he had it. He starts talking about it around the 7:20 mark:

On 3/22 Gavin Creel refers to himself as “pretty sure he has the virus” in “The Rosie O'Donnell Show LIVE! Give #withme to The Actors Fund” - it begins at 2:44:56 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sePAgItK9sM
[deleted false article] reviewing the Stars In The House video posted above from 4/5, it seems he did not get officially tested but is hoping to get the antibodies test.

and The Hollywood Reporter reported on 4/3 he tested positive https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/sara-bareilles-fully-recovered-coronavirus-singer-says-1288392
"
That Hollywood Reporter article is inaccurate. On Stars in the House on 4/5, he said that he was never tested.

This thread could be a force for good, we read about all the deaths and see the figures coming in from countries/states and it is enough to scare the horses. So nice to have something positive and uplifting and prove it is possible to beat this beast.
in China a person beat this horrid corid, but the person is not a performer, so doesn’t really qualify for this thread, but sharing this because the lady is 103.

Daniel Dae Kim is recovering. The best King in King and I and also my favorite character on LOST.
Brian Stokes Mitchell says he's doing well.
