October 1 marked the first birthday of BETM here in NY. Tomorrow, October 8, is the anniversary of my first show here. In the last few days, we have all seen so many changes. Kiril performed an amazing final show Saturday night, Oct. 3. Haydn performed her last show (spectacular as always) here Oct. 4 - and I got to play Billy. That parting scene between Billy and Mrs.Wilkinson never felt so real……………..
On Sunday night, the cast, old and new, celebrated BETM’s birthday at Lucky Strike and it gave us a chance to say even MORE good-byes. Photos below.
How nice it was to say “hello” to our newest Billy, Alex Ko, last night. He performed a fantastic first show and since I was stand-by, I got to watch it! In addition, Kate Hennig performed Mrs. Wilkinson for the first time. She was great!
