If William Duff-Griffin, whom I saw at an early preview of PASSION, became ill AFTER having been let go from the show, I don't see why the producers would retroactively attempt to blame his dismissal on his illness. Why would anyone even have considered that his becoming ill after whatever financial agreement was made when he was let go, would affect anything?

It doesn't seem like the producers would've had a leg to stand on and I hope they were made to pay the costs for Duff-Griffin as well as their own. Seems like the very definition of a frivilous lawsuit.

1. Keenan-Bolger says she was "let go."

2. I couldn't find the coverage on the Duff-Griffen case, but I remember that the Passion producers had to keep paying the estate AFTER he died in November before the show closed. Bob Joy, Duff-Griffin's husband, brought the suit. That's my memory, but it's not mentioned in the Time Duff-Griffin obit.
