Press have been invited back to see the show. Which means they are hoping for new reviews.

Not the ones I think they hope they're gonna get for Billy. I feel they're a lot less kind here than in the UK.

Many critics were either mixed or negative when it opened, and I can’t see that improving especially with Billy being there and Bebe being gone. Although I’ve heard good things about Ellen Harvey. (Is she even Jewish? Quick, somebody tell her to give up the role!)

...Are you familiar with Cabaret? It's kind of a big plot point that Schneider isn't Jewish.

Totally right. My bad. My brain was on Bebe and not the actual character.
