Official Bernadette Peters in Hello, Dolly! performances thread — Page 3

I hope I’m not thread-jacking with this question but, do we know who will be on for Dolly for the performances before Saturday?

Show is dark...

You are totally right. I completely misread their performance calendar. Whoops. 

Ensemble members that left:

Cameron Adams

Jess LeProtto

Charles McCall

Linda Mugleston

 

New ensemble members:

Julian DeGuzman

Carmen Ruby Floyd(u/s Dolly)

 

*swings Ian Liberto & Sarah Meahl have been moved to ensemble.

The swings are: Elizabeth Earley, Jenifer Foote, Stephen Hernandez, Travis Waldschmidt

Can't they pull a Brooke Sheilds, and record a new cast album over the existing tracks of the original revival recording?

 

And, I follow Cameron Adams on Instagram, and I totally didn't realize she was leaving! I hope she is back on stage soon!

And the marquee signage change has started at the Shubert Theatre and the truck is about to start replacing Bette's name with Bernadette's.

She has an “official opening” in late February which I still don’t totally understand, but it makes me think reviews for her will emerge then...?

So excited to see her in a few weeks!!!

The new Minnie Fay is Molly Griggs.

Charles McCall must have left before this past weekend as he wasn't listed in my Playbill. As a replacement, he wasn't there very long.

I thought this was odd, too. Especially since it was his Broadway debut. My only thought is maybe he got injured and can't return. Liberto is taking over his track, or has. McCall was out of the show for Donna's final performance as well and wasn't listed in the Playbill.

Bette Midler who?  Its ALL about Bernadette Peters now!



 

Yes, the letters were still be balanced when this photo was taken.  You can see the man doing this behind the grill.  That "E" at the end of BERNADETTE was indeed straightened.
