Is Heather MacRae performing in a play on or off-Broadway this season?  She was in the original Falsettos on Broadway.

Heather last performed on Broadway in A Catered Affair after a gap of 15 years (following Falsettos). Her last performance off-Broadway was Anne of Green Gables in 2007. She turned 70 last month! I think it's safe to say we shouldn't expect to see her either on or off-Broadway this season.

Was just thinking of her the other day. I love her performance of Amanda McBrrom's "Wheels".

This is not accurate. She appeared in the Transport Group production of I REMEMBER MAMA in 2014 and repeated the role when that production was restaged at Two River Theater (Red Bank, NJ) this past summer. 

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Yes! She IS still acting & did perform in NJ this summer to great reviews! She performed at Feinstein's in Hair Reunion recently & was on this website in an interview w original cast members of Falsettos. She has a lot of talent & energy I'd LOVE to see on Broadway again!  She's got stardust charisma. A natural on stage! Very much like her beloved parents, Gordon & Sheila MacRae.

I hope Broadway.com can help me find her in a current or upcoming production somewhere!

Thanks for replies!!!
