Tonight's audience was
incredible. Everyone was on fire.
Does anyone know what the deal is with Jeannette Bayardelle? She's on the company board in the lobby, but she's not listed anywhere in the Playbill (which is weird to me.)
People here seemed to think she was taking over for Krystal Brown as Abe Lincoln, but that's not the case. Nicole Lewis has assumed the Abe Lincoln track and Chasten Harmon is now in Nicole's old Aretha Franklin track. Chasten's still credited in the playbill as a swing, but she wasn't up on the board as an understudy.
Is Jeannette an uncredited swing in Chasten's place for the moment? I assume she's taking over for Dionne next month and Nicole (who isn't going to London) will remain Abe Lincoln permanently?
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.
