In this episode of From the Mezzanine, we break the tragic news that our Six original Queens are leaving the show we all love so dearly. Next week we will talk about the ladies taking their place. Then, we take a slight turn and discuss another paragon of Broadway, Patrick Page, who will be leaving Hadestown. Tom Hewitt will be taking his place. Our Story From The Stage - GREASE is the word! We will learn how this 'little show that could' turned into the longest-running broadway show of its time.
