But since November 24th is Thanksgiving Day, the flight rates were high. On Sunday, Nov. 20th, I'm thinking of Moulin Rouge. Monday, November 21 is my "Chicago" evening. I was somewhat contemplating booking "Funny Girl" for Tues. Nov. 22nd, with the hope of Julie Benko filling in for L. M. (But, I guess that's wishful thinking.)"
That week, Julie is performing the 11/25 Friday matinee."
Trust me...Benko is fine. Not astounding, but...fine.
But you're gonna want to see Lea.
Actually, no.

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
