If it's not the money, I wonder what her demands are...

To quote Michael Bennett from another thread:
"She might need a dressing room on stage level, she might need a driver to and from the theatre, she might need designated physical therapy / massage therapy, she might require a certain vacation schedule, etc., etc., etc.
There are lots of things that she might need. It sounds like they would likely be things more geared at making the gig comfortable for a woman her age - it doesn't sound like its an issue of money or billing.
I would be surprised if her demands are ridiculous or outlandish"
What Bennett said.

She might need a dressing room on stage level
As far as that goes, her dressing room would be on the ground floor. Angela currently has the stage level dressing room just off stage left. It's a good size with room for visitors. I assume whoever takes over for Madame Armfeldt would get that dressing room anyway.

Word on the street has it that her demands are:
1. During the banquet scene, she gets to sing "Here's to the ladies who lunch."
2. A night with Jude Law
3. A guest starring role on Glee
