Roman, your images aren't showing up. At least not that I can see. Might have an outdated image hosting site.

I use Postimage.org. Sometimes, the images go blank after a while. Are they trying to tell me something. I might create a new Stage Door thread. I've got tons of pictures. Here is a collage of a former Billy Flynn (u/s) Jason Patrick Sands. Looking at the dates, I forgot that I had seen Chicago in June and December of 2015. I first saw JPS in A Chorus Line. He reminded me of a blonde Beach Boy.

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

This is my Velma Kelly collage. I've seen Terra C as Velma Kelly more times than any other. My second picture with Leigh Zimmerman is from 2017.

My Roxie Hart Collage : Top left: with Bianca Marroquin at the San Antonio Majestic Theatre stage door in 2015. I remember seeing the afternoon and evening shows on that day. Top middle: with Bianca Marroquin outside the Ambassador Theatre. Top right: with Dylis Croman outside the Fort Worth Bass Concert Hall (Dylis is a native of Ft. Worth) in 2015. Middle left: with Charlotte D'Amboise outside the Pippin stage door in 2013. I distinctly remember saying to her that I would love to see her someday as Roxie Hart...which I did several years later. Middle center: with Charlotte D'Amboise inside the Ambassador Theatre in 2017. I felt like Eve Harrington, without the malice. Middle right: with Dylis Croman outside the Ambassador in 2016. Bottom left: with Dylis Croman, Dan Gutierrez and Brent Barrett in Fort Worth (201Chicago The Musical Appreciation Thread. Bottom right: with Dylis Croman in Houston (2019). The two and the five fingers indicates my 25th Chicago. Love her!

Ten years ago today, I saw "Chicago" in Forth Worth. Here with the delightful and Ft. Worth native Dylis Croman.

I guess I'll have to upgrade my account to keep the photos from disappearing. I'm thinking of starting a new thread. I have tons of classic stage door pictures. I have of one with Angela Lansbury, but it didn't occur to me to take a picture with Marian Seldes. ( I do have her teeny tiny autograph on the Deuce Playbill.)

OUCH! The Ashley Graham reviews from her debut last night are rough. She can't sing(a la Wendy Williams bad), she forgot her lines several times and her choreography has been watered down terribly.

I read all of the Reddit Chicago comments about Ashley Graham. The comments were very favorable for the current Velma, Sophie Carmen Jones. The views regarding Ashley Graham's performance were rough, to say the least.

Curious about the next Roxie as Ashley Graham's last day is May 25. Probably Charlotte returning. Dylis appears to be teaching a lot this summer. Doesn't seem like there's any names lined up for the summer. Go luck, Chicago!

Understudy week at Chicago. Sophia Carmen Jones is on vacation with the two u/s splitting coverage. Joseph London has been on as Amos for most of this week and Rachel Schur played Mama last night and is playing Roxie tonight. Eddie Bennett was called in as an extra swing and has been on all week while Matthew Winnegge is covering David Bushman's hiatus. Sharon, Chelsea, Eddie and Marty Lawson have been on this entire week so far.

Last minute change tonight: Chelsea James played Hunyak while Jessica Ernest did a split track of Go-To-Hell Kitty/Annie.

Phantom4ever said: "Any word on which cast members are leaving?"

Jermaine Rembrandt has already left due to sustaining an injury over a month ago. Colt Adam Weiss and Eddie Bennett were both brought in as vacation swings recently.

John Michael Fiumara (Fred Casely) is leaving.

Long-time cast members, Michael Scirrotto (Harry) and Rachel Schur (Annie) are leaving this Sunday. Scirrotto has missed a lot of days recently, too, hence why Bennett and Weiss were both brought back.

Long-time dance captain, David Bushman, also left the show recently. Matthew Winnegge returned as a swing last month.

Wow! Michael Scirrotto....I can't picture anyone but him as the jury. Sure hope I can make it back to the Ambassador sometime this summer. I just may end up seeing Chicago twice in one theater-binge trip because there's not much else that's interesting to see, plus I have yet to do a same show-twice-in-one-day thing with Chicago.

Knowing Scirrotto's history with the show, he's likely taking the summer off. He's done so the past two years.

I think them needing three new male actors for the ensemble forced them to ask him since he's available. Lane has played Flynn and Amos for several stints. The only actor to play both roles full-time. I'll assume Lane will at least u/s Flynn.
