I am so happy we are finally seeing her!
Tnks for letting me know rightaway.
I hope Jill(who is brilliant) takes the day off.

Posted: 1/27/06 at 4:26pmSo I assume she is taking over Elena Shaddow's track (who is leaving to do Carnival at Paper Mill)?
#4re: Jennifer Hope Wills Joins Cast of The Woman in White
Posted: 1/27/06 at 4:31pmYes... according to my playbill, Elena Shaddow is currently one of the understudies for Laura.

Posted: 1/27/06 at 6:09pmI don't know who she is but I am sure she is great. I'm a little sad that Elena Shaddow is leaving though. I saw her on for Laura and she was incredible! I hope to see the other cover for Laura, Laura Dekkers, as well.

If you hop the train to Millburn, you can see her in Carnival! in March, and that role (Lili) is like, 4 times the size of Laura F.

Posted: 1/27/06 at 6:26pmJennifer Hope Wills did Wonderful Town with Brooke Shields after Jennifer Westfeldt and Donna Murphy left the show. It was rumored she'd be doing Clara in Piazza though. She's a very good actress, beautiful voice, but she deserves better than this show.

Posted: 1/27/06 at 6:58pmI am thrilled to see that Ms. Wills will be back on Broadway. What a beautiful voice. I only wish she was doing more. I wonder why she decided to accept an understudy role after her great success in Wonderful Town?

Because like most of us, she isn't independently wealthy and has bills to pay.

You go get 'em! That's my girl! Jen is a dear freind, and one of the nicest humans on the planet. She is very happy to be back on Broadway.

Posted: 1/28/06 at 1:55amI thought she was adorable in Wonderful Town w/ Brooke. But there is a very, very short list of performers who could get me back to WiW.

Muscle,
Curtain is referring to when Shirley MacLaine went on for Carol Hainey in Pajama Game. It was her big break. The right people saw her and from there on she was a Star.

Posted: 2/4/06 at 8:48amYeah....that does suck. I was so looking forward to getting to see her again. Hopefully she will pop up in something else again very soon. I always feel so bad for the cast and crew when this happens.
