Posted: 5/26/05 at 11:02pmI saw Brooklyn without Eden....I think she was out that whole week.
#2re: Have they ever missed a performance???
Posted: 5/26/05 at 11:05pmCheyenne has missed one or two, and I think Sherie Rene possibly missed a preview or two.

Posted: 5/27/05 at 1:34amGenerally when you have a new show (like DRS and All Shook Up) there are less absences...
and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

Sara Ramirez missed at least one performance during previews (Darlene Wilson is her standby, and received lukewarm reviews on ATC), but as far as I know, she hasn't been out since - at least if she has, it hasn't been mentioned anywhere online.

Posted: 5/27/05 at 11:15amI saw Wicked without Kristin
When someone blunders, we say that he makes a misstep. Is it then not clear that all the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill our history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill in dancing. - Moliere
#15re: Have they ever missed a performance???
Posted: 5/27/05 at 11:52amKristen was out A LOT in Wicked. She injured her neck, her mother was ill and she was ill herself. I was lucky enough to see her right after she returned from an leave due to illess. I only read about it after the fact, but it explained why she constantly had tissues stashed somewhere in her costume.

Eden's been out a few times I think.
Shoshana's missed 3 or 4 performances I think only for illness-- I don't think she's eligible for a vacation until this summer.
JLT has missed a lot, Kristin was also out a lot. But she also doesn't do Saturday matinees, but still she is sick a lot during the week.

Posted: 5/27/05 at 7:14pmphew...good to know norbie and john havent missed any performances. then again, every time i see a show, my heart is pounding because im nervous that it wont be the cast that i want to see. lol.

Posted: 5/28/05 at 12:09amEden hardly ever misses...i say the entire time bklyn's been opened, she's MAYBE missed 15 shows tops..and they were basically all due to illness. Julie Reiber,Shelly Thomas and Sara Schmidt all got to go on.

Posted: 5/28/05 at 9:00amEden has definitely missed a few performances, and so has Shoshana.
