Please come to Chicago!!!
I'm catching her in Boston in May! I'm soo excited that she is going on tour!!
Millie, where will Sutton be performing in Boston? Thanks :)
I don't know that yet. But when I met Sutton at the beginning of this month she told me she's going to Boston in May! I can't wait until they actually post itt! But that came from her, so it's legit! :)
Thanks for the info! Now I'm excited for more info to be released :)
Already have my tickets to see her in Naples. Can't wait!
For anyone in the central Indiana area, Sutton Foster will be performing a free concert and presentation at Ball State University on Saturday, January 30th.

I wish she would come to Northwest Florida...Pensacola, maybe?
Do they really think some no-name is gonna sell well in the flyover states? Guess so.
Bernadette Peters? Yes. Patti LuPone? Yes. Linda Eder, even. But Sutton Foster? I can't imagine she is as well-known as even the Callaway sisters (either one), who play decidedly small venues. This is very odd news given the economic climate.

^I'm glad someone said it. I'm wondering just how well she'll sell in some of these venues.
Doesn't it depend on how big the venues are?

anyone know if she's going to come anywhere closer to virginia than north carolina? cause if not, I'll just get tickets for north carolina but it's kind of a long drive.. or does anyone know when the new dates will be announced? cause I don't want to wait too long then find out there's not one any closer and all the good tickets are gone.
I just bought tickets for her Cleveland show. She is playing the Hanna Theatre, which is a gorgeous little jewel box. If she keeps to theatres the size of the Hanna in larger cities I am sure she will see just fine to theatre fans in those cities. I can't wait!!!!!
I'm seeing her tomorrow night (Sunday, Jan. 24) at Joe's Pub. Is this a "rehearsal" of that concert, do you think?
Oddly I got a Playbill email this morning that announces she's doing that at Joe's Pub tonight. I think they are wrong.
Patash- I'm going to Sutton's concert at Joe's Pub too. It's gonna be a preview of her tour. I hope we will maybe get a new song. Hehe.
The article better be wrong from playbill! Haha. that would suck if it was tonight! But the ticket says Sunday the 24th, so it must have just been a typo.
Well, Millie -- did you like it as much as I did? I loved the "Big Book of High Belt Songs".
Love the picture of her from Laura Marie Duncan!
Can't wait for the Boston date/place to be announced...better be soon!
Do either of you have a set list? Any chance she sings "Gimme Gimme"? :) I cant wait to see her.
Here's a partial song list (just what I can remember, and probably not in order):
Not for the Life of Me/NYC/Astonishing (Medley)
Up on the Roof
Air Conditioner
Warm All Over
Show Off
My Heart Was Set On You
On My Way
The Story Goes On (chosen at random from her Big Book of Really High Belt Songs)
The Late, Late Show
Sunshine On My Shoulders
Come the Wild, Wild Weather
Once Upon a Time
Gimme, Gimme
Don't Rain on My Parade (also chosen from the Big Book of Really High Belt Songs)
I think even seeing her onstage alone must be better than sitting through Drowsy and Little Women. She has the worst taste to pick shows I must say...
Well, there was that little show called Les Miz...
Im personally not a fan of Les Miz, but I feel she was professionally able to pick her projects after Millie(which I actually do think it's a great show)
Her Tony win opened a lot of doors for her.
