So I recall reading on here that Paulo Szot was leaving his role as Emile, then coming back, leaving, and coming back again. Originally he was supposed to return on the 27th of January. Is he back already? I would assume it would be pretty heavily covered, since he did take home the Tony, but I'm just wondering what the hold-up is. Thank you.

Posted: 2/2/09 at 2:57pmHe's back. He was only out for a short time and will be leaving again in the middle of March. Someone stepping out of their show for only a month isn't usually covered aside from the original press release. Only extended absences like Harvey Fierstein's multi-year one from Hairspray are normally covered.

Posted: 2/2/09 at 7:36pmThere's a shot that Szot will return in March.

Posted: 2/2/09 at 7:50pmOkay now I really am confused. Is he back yet or not? Because the original thread and all the coverage of his replacement all cite January 27 as the date which was supposed to mark his return. Yet some of you are saying he's back already, some are saying he won't back until March or April. Which is it?

Posted: 2/2/09 at 7:52pmThe press release is where you should go. He IS back. Dolly was making a joke based on the pronunciation of Szot's name.

Posted: 2/2/09 at 7:53pmAre you implying that I'm full of szot?

He's back. He will step out again beginning on March 12 and will return April 12 (until, I believe, the fall).

Posted: 2/2/09 at 8:24pmWow, I literally missed Szot by by two days. Too bad, too, because Pittsinger was DULL.

Posted: 2/2/09 at 8:56pmThat's rather like stepping in szot, isn't it?

Posted: 2/3/09 at 8:04pmI know it's way ahead of time, but if anyone is interested, Szot will be performing in The Nose at the next March.
