Hopefully she'll join the tour.
Won lotto for the matinee today! Going to paste here what I posted on another site:
Justina is pretty awesome, actually!! She is HILARIOUS, but manages not to take it over the top. Her Daniela was a little less... cartoony (probably not a good word) than Andrea's. When she was singing "No Me Diga" I kind of wondered if she could do Carnaval but she made it work (my first reaction to the intro was kind of "Well, hellloooooo voice!"). That's not to say her voice was bad because it was actually really pretty.
Wow, I want to see this show again now!

I understand Justina has left the show before her scheduled August 23rd departure date.
Anyone know the story behind this?

I saw her on Sunday and she was fantastic.
I really had no anticipated on seeing the show, but she was quite good.
Really? That's unfortunate.
Wasn't Machado supposed to be off the first week of August for a scheduled vacation?
I hadn't heard she left early, but she is part of a new medical drama for CBS called Three Rivers that shoots in Pittsburgh.
I'm not sure if they've gone into production for the fall yet or not. Most other shows have started shooting, so it would make sense if she had to leave to begin work on that project.
