Donna Marie Asbury as Morton

Hey,
I got a little bored and was playing around on ibdb.
DMA is listed as an understudy for mama.
Has she ever gone on?
thanx
SupremeDiva

Not that Im aware of. And to the best of my knowledge, she only recently took over the Mama track. (and when I say recently I mean within the last year or so)
Bklyn

thanks.
If you find out in advance that she is going on, please post.

Considering I have no idea what's going on in the Broadway company most of the time anymore, I doubt I will hear anything. But on the off beat chance I do, I will post it.

I think she took over the Mama track after Roxane Carrasco left the company. Didnt Potterf cover Mama for a while with MMR? I know Potterf has since left the company as well....

I'm pretty sure that DMA has gone on as Mama Morton more than once.

I don't remember Potterf ever covering Morton, and I feel like Donna has only been covering the role within the last year or so, but I haven't really been keeping up.

Hm, if that was true, poor choice. Use the stunning lady as a Velma cover if anything.

heather, any idea if Potterf will emerge again on the Chicago scene? That gal Melissa just ain't the same.

Kev, seeing the show again in two weeks.

aww, boo. is this "my" melissa? (rae mahon?)

i haven't seen her in chicago but she was always stunning, imo, in 42nd st, producers, cats -- all the shows i saw her in.

perhaps i saw potterf one too many times to really appreciate her.

know who i miss as kitty? christine brooks, KMM, and that other girl swing...cant' think of her name. circa 1999/2000, short hair, really awesome. mindy? no. hm.

anyway. sorry i'm so incoherent. anyone know what/who i am talking about?
thanks,

Yeah I have no idea. I heard Potterf's off being a mommy.....

Is Belle still doing the standby thing?
SupremeDiva

Unless she came back and nobody told me, Belle's been out of the company for a few years

Cause I have a playbill (dating back to Summer 2005) of Chicago and shes still in it, but I just got a playbill from 2007, and she was gone.

What became of her?
SupremeDiva

She moved on. Im not sure what she's up to these days..... but I know she left the company not long after Rox did....
Linda

She did Anything Goes in the SF area last year.

Google her name. She's moved to AZ.
