| Sorry if I gave the implication that it "doesn't matter." Of course, it matters, which is why AEA mandates that producers must inform the audience in, at least, 2 out of 3 acceptable ways. What I meant to highlight was that audiences know Bette Midler and her attendance at any given performance of HELLO, DOLLY! was likely a factor in the ticket purchase. General audiences probably don't know Stephanie J. Block and I doubt that many of them bought their tickets especially to see her. She's what I call a "New York Name," someone that we know here at ATC and someone that regular NYC metro area theatre goers should know, but not someone that a member of the general public elsewhere or a non-regular theatregoer is going to recognize. So, given that, I would not expect any special effort on the part of the producers of THE CHER SHOW to alert audiences when Block is out of the show, other than what they are required to do by AEA. The original poster did not say how many people he saw trying to reschedule their tickets in order to see Block. I wonder if there were any at all. |
