If Nancy goes on, I will mame every effort to see her. I've seen Glenn twice, will be a third time, but I would love to see what she does with it.

Same here. I've been lucky enough to see Glenn a few times in this production, and I'm grateful to see her amazing performance every time. But I totally wouldn't mind seeing Nancy, who is 45 now, so it does not seem like a far reach for the role.

Ouch, on Mother's Day too. Can't imagine all the upset people who had tickets for today.

Kudos to her, but I can totally hear the illness in her voice, and not only Glenn, but a few other people also sounded under the weather."
It surprises me that someone in a role of this nature would go on, knowing that they are ill, because the character is required to get quite up-close-and-personal with Joe Gillis. I would think there'd be concern about her spreading it to Joe, who would then spread it to Betty, who would then spread it to Artie, and so on.

Personally, I would love the chance to see Nancy Anderson as Norma....just saying.

Fascinated to hear reports of anyone that was there about how the scene was at the theater. What a terrible day to have this happen, as I'm sure the audience was filled with mothers and their families expecting to see Glenn Close.
I would imagine many audience members would've rather the show been canceled and seen another show altogether than see her understudy perform in what's ultimately a severely mediocre production. That's just my thoughts, though...

I have to agree. Seeing this show without Glenn would be so disappointing, as talented as Nancy is of course. Are they letting people who stay return for free?

I got to catch it, and there was a longer than usual line for boxoffice exchange/refund, I suppose.
But Nancy is great and she gives a very different interpretation, which I really appreciate! The audience is very supportive and responsive- applaud as loud as when Glenn was in the role at the end of every Norma song.
On the other hand, Michael seems to have a pretty serious foot injury. He limped heavily throughout the whole 2.5 hr. Probably b/c it's already an understudy as Norma, they would not get another understudy to go on for Joe.

Considering she's never missed a show before, why wouldn't it be "a longer than usual line"?

Of cause there would. I'm not surprised. I just hope Glenn has a speedy recovery!
