I may go on Saturday as I've never seen Kara Lindsay as Cynthia and this is her last week before maternity leave

I saw her a few weeks ago. She acquits herself nicely, especially with the music and the piano playing, even though she really sounds nothing like Carole. Her acting was a bit shaky at times, but I think she did a fine job in terms of being a stunt-cast.

Honestly, Jessica Keenan Wynn walks away with the whole show as Cynthia Weil.

I thought she was terrific for a stunt cast. I actually thought her acting skills were stronger than her singing skills in this role. I'm not saying she was bad but she just didn't hit some of the notes the same way Chilina or Abby did. But I was very pleasantly surprised overall and thought she did a great job. Definitely worth a trip to the Sondheim in my opinion.

This would have been my exact review as well.

Will also add that the entire cast came out for stage door the night we saw it and spent quite a bit of time with the audience.

Show had a good run, would encourage anyone to go and see it before it closes.
