Peters and Joanna Gleason both returned. If memory serves, they performed 3 to 4 performances for paying audiences -- Thursday, May 23 to Saturday, May 25 1989 -- and then of course they shot the show with an empty theater to do close-ups, etc., and integrated the footage. In a sense, you are correct: they did film some material without a full house. Someone else can perhaps augment and correct this. But I do remember knowing the circumstances, because I took my 10-year-old nephew who was visiting. It's a reason I returned.
