Sweet Charity Absences

Sorry to take up threadspace with a post many may find inconvenient, but I was wondering if there are any scheduled vacations for any Sweet Charity cast members cause I want to go this saturday afternoon, but would like to see them all

Christina Applegate is always in. Unless she is sick, which she rarely is.

re: Sweet Charity Absences

Christina has only missed 2 shows since she started in New York. Once was becasue she pulled her hamstring. You'll probably see a swing in for a quartet member or something.. but the leads will all be there. Has dennis missed at all yet?

I saw Joyce Chittick go on for Janine LaManna.. Janine must have been either really sick last week or on vacation, cause she was out close to a whole week!

re: Sweet Charity Absences

Yea i heard last week was her vacation and I was afraid she may still be out or somebody else is up for vacation time

re: Sweet Charity Absences

As far as I know Denis has only missed one show...

You saw him in Assassins? Lucky.

He's so sweet.

I just love an excuse to gush about him.

re: Sweet Charity Absences

And does she still wear those horrid gold boots? Or is she wearing something a little more sexier?
#13

re: Sweet Charity Absences

She still has a fracture in her foot. Get over the boots.
#14

re: Sweet Charity Absences

lmao. Im waiting to see those heels she wears in the ads sometimes. Umm my friend Wickedgeek went about a few months ago and didnt come out between matinee and night shows cause she needed to apply some ice to her injury. Is it safe to assume that is no longer the case?

re: Sweet Charity Absences

re: Sweet Charity Absences

re: Sweet Charity Absences

I would much rather see Joyce Chittick than Janine LaManna...Joyce is incredibly talented and I bet she kills as Nickie.

re: Sweet Charity Absences

does anyone know who's left the show besides ernie sabella, i saw it with the original cast, but i was just wondering?
oy with the poodles already!

re: Sweet Charity Absences

Yes Joyce Chittick totally kicks ass. She is so amazing in the show. Any one notice that Janine stumbles over almost every line. I didn't at first but after seeing the show 5 times I started to notice that Janine just can't seem to get her lines out. Wonder whats going on there? LOL HMMMMMM....... And its not a fluke or a bad night, she is always doing it.

re: Sweet Charity Absences

Ummm. I never had that problem with Janine.

Anyway, she is one hell of a singer. I can't wait for to take on a bigger role.

re: Sweet Charity Absences

I don't think Janine stumbles her lines (at least not the 7 times i have seen it) If anything she speeds a couple of them esspecially the "Charity as your best friend, Nikki Papalupolous, i have to say you are a dumb broad"....

Also to touch base on Charity's foot wear....her heels in Chicago didn't even look like the other foot wear in the show, they kind of look like the heel version of the boots she wears now.... The Promo photos have her in amazing heels that look like the shoes everyone else wear but i guess they where dubbed undanceable (is that a word...if not i just made it one)!
