very suspicious...such a shame, i would kill to be in ALNM
How can you sight scheduling conflict the night before a concert?
Do you just wake up and suddnely relize you have a doctors appointment or bridge game?
That's too bad...I was looking forward to seeing her.
Scheduling conflict is often code for so much more...

That's disappointing, as I was looking forward to her a bit more than Ebersole... but I'm still excited to see the concert!
Yeah, I think the whole gimmick was to have them play mother and daughter again, and they do have such great stage chemistry. Honestly, I don't find the cast to be particularly exciting now that she is out.

I'm disappointed, too, but Bobbie Steinbach is a very good local actress. If I'm remembering correctly, she played Madame Armfeldt at the Lyric Stage a few years ago. I seem to remember her being quite good.
I wonder what this means for the Tanglewood stint in July. Will Ms. Wilson be available then? Will Steinbach play there, too? Will they recast with another B'way name?
I was really hoping for major names for Carl Magnus and Charlotte, too. Will Tanglewood Festival Chorus folks have the acting chops required? We shall see...
I hope a little more warning is available if she is to have the same "conflicts" for the July concert...
