No announcement of SUFFS or NOTEBOOK closing. Both are probably just taking 2 weeks off for this. Taub seems way overqualified for Emma Goldman, but she'll be good!"

Judy Kaye was also way overqualified for the role. But it really can be a standout role. Plus being a part of this production in any way will be bragging rights for years to come. Shaina is IDEAL for the role.

The Connector isn’t transferring.


and re: Suffs- Emma Goldman is not a large role. Taub will only need to take the weeks of Ragtime off."

She also played Emma Goldman in a concert on Ellis Island back in 2016.

Taub posted on Instagram that Ragtime is her favorite show, so she’s taking a break to do it and then will be back in Suffs after.

I'd imagine if Ross stays with anything it'll be "Gatsby".

Is it bad that one of the first things I thought when the announcement came out was "So, is Shaina even involved with Devil Wears Prada anymore?"?

Per another user on here, she's not actively involved and another individual (whose name escapes me) is credited with "additional lyrics" in the program for London.

Shaina just posted on her Instagram story that she will be taking 2 weeks off from Suffs; however she will still be performing in the show on election night as well as the following day's matinee. (Hawley Gould and Chessa Metz will be on during her absence).

She’s leaving 10/6 but I don’t know who’s replacing her at the moment.

How is front row balcony? Better than rear mezzanine right?

I'd go for front balcony (like rows A-D ish) over rear mezz (rows H-M).  Anything behind that in the balcony I'd say is a toss up though.

Love them both, but I think Joaquina fits it a bit more, both age wise and based on her previous work. Joy would have been a revelation tho!

Do folks think it's worth upgrading from Mez B to Grand Tier C? Both about equally far from the center.

Probably not worth it to move up 4 rows if there's a difference in cost. If you were further back in the mezz, it would be a different matter because of the balcony overhang.

That's what I figured but I've never been in that space before. Thanks!
