That's lucky for the tour and those who go to see it, but won't it be a challenge for the next Flynn.

If there's a God, the play will come to the Boston area while Ms. Jones is in it.

This is what stars used to do all the time - good for her - and those who get to see her.

I like how you Bostonians and Chicagions are praying it will come to ya'll. I have no doubt in my mind that you'll be seeing Doubt. You should be hoping for us ppl down here in the south - alabama - that this show comes somewhere near us.

seeing her in this show was the best experience in theater history. You can not miss this if the tour comes to your town. This lady is beyond brilliant.

Wow. What a lovely, unexpected gift. The lady is a marvel.

Eileen Atkins talked about this and other things on Theatre Talk this weekend. It was a pretty good episode.

It's so cool that she's gonna star in the tour, and I'm so glad that the tour is gonna be in Baltimore. I'm definatly gonna be seeing this, between Doubt, DRS, Sweet Charity, Wicked, and Spamalot, the Hippodrome's 06-07 season is looking great!

Is she still doing "Faith Healer"?

Yes. The tour follows her run in that.

James, I am from Baltimore too. Honestly I prefer to watching a different Sister Aloysius since I already saw Ms.Jones on Broadway. But seeing her again isn't bad either.

Katurian2 - I would think that if we get it here in Colorado and it plays the DCPA in Denver, it would probably have to play the Stage Theatre at the Helen Bonfills. The Buell would swallow it up.

She's only doing the first six months of the tour and her last appearance will be March 6-11 2007 in Pittsburgh at the Benedum Center.

[Smaxie]

Posted: 2/23/06 at 1:16pm

That's incorrect. She'll be in the tour until early April.

Posted: 2/23/06 at 1:19pm

Is the tour starting later than September then, or is she doing longer than six months? Which bit is incorrect on Playbill's part?

[Smaxie]

Posted: 2/23/06 at 1:25pm

She has three more cities after Pittsburgh.

Oh my good God, Cherry Jones is my personal goddess. She was amazing in Doubt, and I'm thrilled that she's gonna be on the tour. She gave me and my friends some EXCELLENT acting tips after the show. She's so humble! And she has no reason to be...she could have been Diva of the Decade and I would have forgiven her, but no. She has to be perfect.

Is there ANY pleasing you people?
