I'm thrilled that Bette is getting such glowing and well-deserved reviews. However, Carol Channing will always be my favorite Dolly.
There, I said it.
I love your love for her.
As my friend Ron said, a lot of actresses play Dolly, Carol IS Dolly.
How is te view from the balcony? I'm thinking of sitting there for a Donna Muprhy performance but don't know if an upgrade to the Mezzanine is worth it.

I sat up there during previews. I had a clear view of the stage.

For anyone who may have questions about the view from the extreme sides, I sat in the last seat in Orchestra row O (I think 25?), house left, and it was definitely partial view for some scenes. Whenever anyone was on the second level of the feed store, stage right, they were missed, as was most of the Cornelius table at Harmonia Gardens. Full view for Bette chowing down, though!

Wonderful news! I had the impression that it would be released in June. Great news on the early release!
Some Orchestra row S seats are available now for this Friday. They are all singles.

After all these years.......
Why do Dolly and Ermengarde need 11 pieces of luggage on their train trip from Yonkers to NYC?
Oprah, Gayle, and Bob Greene at Dolly tonight. It is on Oprah's Instagram. Whoopi went to yesterdays matinee. I love all the Instagram pics.
Patti Labelle was allegedly also there last night. Now that is a idea!
Theres a neat picture of Reba visiting Bette backstage at Dolly on Instagram. Look for it there or maybe Robbie can repost here?
Here it is

I could see Reba replacing Bette.
How funny that BWW puts it on as news right after I posted it. It is at least a few days old. Way to stay on it news desk!

How do you do it? Can you put the one of Jane Fonda with Bette?

they tend to do that a lot here. They use us as source material, especially for pictures.
Have you seen who is campaigning to be the nest Dolly on Instagram and social media? BWW NEWS DESK?

"Jane was at Dolly...when?
@Robbie If I am not mistaken it was last weekend of previews. Jane and Lily were in the city doing promotion for Grace and Frankie.
So it looks like CBS Sunday morning and Colbert are the only appearances Bette will make pre Tonys? Also; from what I see in social media it looks like they are getting a combination of two numbers at the Tonys. Not necessarily together.
They should do Sunday Clothes it features more of the principals. But I imagine CBS will insist on the title number.
