DeLaria?
Michele?
Salonga?


Hah! The first person I thought of when I saw the title of this thread was Lea DeLaria. Glad I was not the only one.

7 days between fridays, not 4.

I was referring to four performances.

AFTER tonight -- then Saturday 2, Sunday 1, Tuesday (her "originally" scheduled Opening) 1. That's four.

I'd expect she'd do three of them (certainly Tuesday's), but even two would be cool.
I also expect her to do both performances on Wednesday.

I'll be there Wednesday night.


p.s. Have you forgotten Hail Celia?

pps: I believe Lea is pronounced as Laya, not Leeya.

You're right. There is no long E sound in her first name. (Or last, for that matter. )

Believe me, I know that. LAY-a Salonga, Cee-LEEYA Keenan-Bolger. I just thought it was close enough to be overlooked.

Hail CELIA and SEE LEA!

There, that works too.

I am so excited for her to play that part!! I am really hoping I can get back to NYC to see the show with her in it....and before everybody else from the original cast leaves!
