The same thing could be said about Friends. They’re both still beloved properties. Both Sex and the City movies were box office successes, even though those were 10-12 years ago as well. I think it makes total sense for this production to angle the show as a mix of those two properties.

Any reason I should be worried about missing Patti if I book a Thursday night in late April?

Any ideas when a rush policy will be announced?

I'm planning on seeing this to get the memories of the last Broadway revival out of my head. It was another overrated John Doyle actor-musician production and many of the roles were miscast.

They sound amazing! I think even better than the London boyfriends.

Loved that rendition. Can’t wait to see this show.

John Arthur Greene has joined the cast, which makes sense as he’s a very obvious cover for Andy.

As far as I know, Patti didn't miss any performances in London. She did miss a few in War Paint, but very rarely. She has a solid attendance record and only misses if she really has to - I don't think you should feel 'worried' the same way you might be of some performers who have a reputation, but there is always a small chance.

Stanley Bahorek and Tally Sessions have also joined the cast.

I hope they announce the non-principal cast soon. They seem to have cast some really interesting choices.

Anisha Nagarajan posted a photo in her IG Story of "Who's Who" in Company. And she will be Patti's understudy.

She missed a couple, her understudy Francesca Ellis was very good too

Wow. She’s only 36. Interesting

Who are the other understudies?

Wow, indeed. She can sing, but they must have a lot of faith in Patti's attendance if theyre hiring one understudy 35 years her junior...

I have a screenshot, but I can't figure out how to upload pictures.
Here is the list of non-principal cast members as it appeared on Anisha's story:

Kathryn Allison: New Yorker, U/S Jenny, Susan, Sarah
Stanley Bahorek: New Yorker, U/S David, Paul, Theo
Britney Coleman: New Yorker, U/S Jenny, Bobbie, Sarah
John Arthur Greene: Dance captain, U/S PJ, Theo, Andy, Paul, Jamie
Philip Hernandez: New Yorker, U/S Harry, Larry, David
Javier Ignacio: New Yorker, U/S Jamie, Peter, Andy
Anisha Nagarajan: New Yorker/Bobbie Double, U/S Susan, Joanne
Tally Sessions: U/S Larry, Harry, Peter, PJ

Wow thank you!! This cast seems larger than London’s. 
I feel like they may still hire a proper age Joanne standby. I’d be very surprised if there’s only one cover, and it’s a 36 year old.

Also, I am very pleased on how they put together a completely diverse ensemble/non-principal cast. There were some diversity concerns in the beginning, but they’ve put together an awesome group.

Pretty excited to see this on Broadway! Having seen it in London, worry that Patty was a snore-through-bored-performance effort. I hope Lady Lupone wakes up and appears to care in the role. 

Gorgeous reimagining by Elliott.

Did anyone else find Lupone a snore times two in London?
