"i am fairly new to the board and i have been very disturbed by the lack of support given to actors who can't do an 8 show week because of illness. I myself had a chronic illness when i was playing a lead in a broadway show a few years ago...it IS incredibly upsetting as a performer to have to call out. do you guys realize that it is a dream fulfillment for a performer to get a leading role on broadway and it is TORTURE to have to miss a show...its the hardest call to make. most people in my show were not supportive and the fans weren't great about it either. ALTHOUGH..not as bad as fans have been to Sara Ramirez"
Yeah I really want to know too...I read that whole thread. Clearly I need to go to bed, but I just got off work and after investing the 10 minutes to read all of that the curiosity is getting the best of me :)
