All the best to Cynthia, who will also be performing in Toronto for the final time this evening along with Patrick Mulvey and Armand Schultz.

Actually, BETM Broadway's summer schedule has two shows on Sundays AND two shows on Wednesdays (they have two dark days every week - Mondays and Tuesdays).

Sorry. I should have said "afternoon" instead of "evening."

Cynthia Darlow was fantastic in the role of Grandma. I like the mix of "batty" and "sweet." She played it so well and you can really tell there was a special connection between Grandma and Billy. Those scenes melt my heart!

Bravo Ms. Darlow! Best of luck in the future!

According to a public tweet made by Kat Hennessey (Dead Mum) on the tour:

"Last night we said farewell to our darling Cynthia Darlow, and tonight we welcome back our lovely Patti Perkins"
