The casts in London don't get reviewed again. There is perhaps one review of one cast, and that doesn't seem to have been an invited thing. There seem to have been equally passionate people in favor of the choices that the OG cast made (as well the praise from London) as there were people who were mad at them and well, that kind of support matters more than detractors who were probably never going to watch or the casually interested, who have no urgency, whichever cast it may be.

I wonder if Moana and its press cycle might generate interest in Auli'i?

Adam Lambert was off (unscheduled/last minute) on Sunday. Has he missed many performances? 

"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022) "Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009) "Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

John kander was in the audience tonight and bebe neuwirth introduced him at the end. He then came on stage and gave a speech as well as raved about Adam Lambert and was given a special Olivier award. Love these little New York theatre moments. Very special to be there.
