I used "fret" with the intent that it be a joke.

I think, actually, that the fact he went on today and not last nite shows just the opposite-that he was not prepared last night. And yes I think there was a rehearsal. And no I do not think this kid, making his Broadway debut, slept last night. And no, I also don't think he should've gone on this afternoon. I hope he did spectacularly, but I also think the main factors influencing the decision were (a) that the Roundabout is money hungry and (b) the kid was reluctant to assert his contractual rights. But that's just me.
