I keep seeing comments on ATC about Christine's "surprise, unannounced" week off last month. I'm not a member there but I wanted to set the record straight somewhere!
I had tickets to see Grey Gardens on 3/24/07. I was anxious to see Christine. So a month or so before then, I began regularly checking for vacation notices.
On 3/14/07 I saw the announcement on both telecharge and the show's website that Mary Louise Wilson would be on vacation beginning 3/20 and that Christine would be on vacation beginning 4/3/07 (a full three weeks later)
I noticed that the 3/14 announcement wasn't picked up on by either this board or ATC until the week before her vacation began. So many assumed it was a last minute thing when really it wasn't.
I let it go at the time because I don't post here (I just read) and it wasn't a huge deal. But it's two months later and people (not on this site that I've noticed) still use it, and with great glee it seams, to discredit Christine.
Sorry for the long first post. But I just had to get that off my chest.
