Hi. I have a couple questions, and I think it best just to ask since everyone on here seems to know EVERYONE, lol.

First, who was the woman who played Jack's mother in the DVD of Into the Woods? Is it the same woman who was on the CD? And whatever happened to her?

And second, who played the matchmaker on the TOUR of Fiddler with Topol that we saw a few months ago? There have been so many tours that we can't figure out which actress is was when we google it. And does anyone know what she's doing now?

Thanks!!!

Barbara Bryne was Jack's Mom on Broadway, the cast recording and the video. She was also The Old Lady/Blair in SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE.

She works a lot at the Stratford Festival in Ontario.

Mary Stout was Yente on the recent Topol tour.
