Yeah, Michelle is not big. I was going to guess 5'2" or 5'3". I'll try to remember to ask her when I see her next. And also what they plan on doing when she does go on as Connie. I don't think little Yuka is invincible to disease!
Yeah, there have been quite a few understudies on lately. Everyone's been sick! Deidre Goodwin was having such a hard time containing her coughs during "What I Did For Love" on Friday. I felt so bad for her! I hate that feeling and I told her afterwards that I was willing her lungs and body to calm down. She said she had been out the two nights before.
On Friday, Ken Alan was out too, along with Charlotte, so I got to see David Baum go on. He was good. Not quite the pizazz that Ken has, but still really good. He's a nice guy too!
And Broadway Matt mentioned Grant Turner. Well, he ended up going on toward the end of the matinee on Saturday. I think it was about the time they were pairing off. But I went to look for Brad and was like, woah! That's not him! Grant did a great job covering though. He, too, is a nice guy...and has a cool Australian accent too! :)
