Saw Here Lies Love yesterday and Ruthie was still out. The staff was vague when I asked about her. The standby was great. However my only complaint is that she is a waif which works for young Imelda but she is just a slip of a thing and swims in those costumes. No curves like the real Imelda. I had to suspend my disbelief for older Imelda. Anyone know how Ruthie is?
She never fully recovered from an injury, so she's still out while it heals.

I wondered myself when I saw it recently. Understudy is talented, but I agree not physically suited to the second half of the show.
