[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This happened to my kid. She had a major role (not the lead, but a key role with a solo) in a play for which there was no understudy. If she didn’t go, they would have either cancelled or had a random person do it on book and without performing the songs; it would have totally wrecked the show. There was no opportunity to reschedule because it was in a borrowed/fully scheduled venue. [b]She performed, Zofraned up, while vomiting backstage twice. Everyone knew; we were totally upfront about it. There was not a single suggestion that she shouldn’t perform. [/b]Obviously she did not want to ruin 6 months of everyone’s hard work. Things happen, OP, I totally get it and would not force my DD to stay home if she didn’t want to in your position.[/quote]

That sounds like absolute hell. I’ll say openly what was said behind your back at the time: she should not have performed.[/quote]

NP and if this was anything short of recreational children's theater, I'm guessing that people actually didn't say something behind her back but rather lauded her for embodying the spirit of "the show must go on." The mores of DCUM are irrelevant to the theater world.[/quote]
