Saw "6 Dance Lessons in 6 Weeks" today and Polly Bergen left after the second lesson (about 30 minutes into the show). She was replaced by her understudy Kathleen Doyle, who did a wonderful job. Anyone know what happened to Ms. Bergen?
I think she was replaced by an understudy throughout last night's show. I wonder what's going on? I'm glad to hear the understudy did a good job, at least.
The folks at the theater said Polly Bergen will be back in Six Dance Lessons starting tomorrow. Meanwhile, I saw the show with the understudy, Kathleen Doyle, and thought she was terrific. But obviously Polly Bergen is a bigger draw than Mark Hamill; in fact some people were leaving the theater because Polly Bergen was out. I think she's coming back just in time.
