If Bernadette is in the Broadway "Follies", I guess some of these concerts will be cancelled, especially (all in 2011):

Sept. 10: Carpenter Center for The Performing Arts, Richmond, VA
Oct. 1: Flynn Center for the Performing Arts, Burlington, VT
Oct. 13: Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas, TX
Nov. 10: North Central College, Naperville, IL
Dec. 28: Kravis Center for the Performing Arts, West Palm Beach, FL

(Note: nothing has been announced as of today as to these concerts, I'm just speculating)

Yikes, I got a ticket to Richmond before it was announced that Follies would go to Broadway! Though in that recent interview (which was also posted here I believe) Bernadette and Elaine were talking about how they both have concerts in the fall and Bernadette didn't say anything about that being cancelled...

Hi, by the way, I'm Babs =3 I lurked every once in a while, and finally decided to join the forum.

Babs, Welcome. It sounds like that interview between Bernadette and Elaine was taped before the Follies announcement was made. Most, but not all, performers will cancel concerts when they have a Broadway show. From experience it seems Bernadette ALWAYS cancels her concerts. Her commitment is to the Broadway show - probably in some part due to the fact that she is always an over the title star and therefore refunds are plentiful when she is out. So I don't think anything has been cancelled yet but I'm pretty certain an announcement will eventually be made that Bernadette will not be doing the Richmond Concert. They may reschedule her for another date in the spring but I'm quite certain you would be able to get a refund for your ticket. So I would just sit tight on your ticket and see how things unfold.

Hello, Moljul. Thanks for the welcome. Yeah, I did assume I would be able to get a refund if it ended up being cancelled because come on, it's like almost $140 for a good seat; they'll have a bunch of VERY pissed off people if they don't offer refunds. I've still got my fingers crossed though, because I would really love to see her in concert. That, and I need to take a picture with her. The one I got at Follies came out blurry D=

Well I think you may need to reschedule your photo session after a performance of Follies on Broadway.

I planned on purchasing ticket on July 8 for the Oct 15 concert at the Valley Performing Arts Center.

I guess I won't buy the tickets now.

So I just got an e-mail from CenterStage saying Bernadette will be replaced by Patti LaBelle for the Richmond concert on Sept. 10. I guess we all knew that this would happen, but I'm still really bummed =/ I hoped maybe it would get rescheduled or something. Alas.
