I thought this was amazing. Jena Malone, who played Bone in "Bastard Out of Carolina," will join Ron in "Doubt." For anyone who has not seen "Bastard out of Carolina," it will be shown on Lifetime Movie Network on Dec. 17 at 11:30 pm. It's from 1996 and Ron plays stepfather to Jena's character. It's a very tough and unsugarcoated look at child abuse and molestation. It can be very tough to watch, but they are great in it.

Maybe she'll dye her hair black and then she will fit the pattern of RE's women.

I have a couple of questions and maybe those of you who know more about broadway can help.
1. Is there anyway to find out before you buy a ticket if Ron will be working that night or not? Since I would probably buy it well in advance, I'd want to know. After all, that is the reason for going. Wouldn't want to go on his night off.
2. How long does an actor usually sign on for? I may not be able to go until June. That's six months from now which never seemed so long.

After all, that is the reason for going. Wouldn't want to go on his night off. 2. How long does an actor usually sign on for? I may not be able to go until June. That's six months from now which never seemed so long. Question 1. It's in the lap of the Gods. Once upon a time, if you had tickets for a performance and, upon arriving, learned the understudy would be playing that night, you were allowed to quietly leave your seat, tiptoe to the box office, and turn in the tickets -- asking for a refund and/or tickets for another performance. I have no idea if this is still standard procedure, and only a phone call to the Walter Kerr Theatre will answer the question. Or maybe an e-mail to the Doubt website. Question 2. My gut says this depends on how long the play runs. Doubt has been in performance for over a year and already won all the awards it's likely to, which is a delicate time for any production. And it also depends on how big a *name* the actor is, and what kind of deal they are able to cut: one year, or run of the play? Again, I'm guessing that the current cast will be in it for at least six months (if ticket sales keep the house filled). Eileen Atkins wouldn't come from London for a one- or two- month run, and that's one indication. Ron Eldard wouldn't be likely to sign on for something that was going to fold quickly (as far as he knew, Blind Justice notwithstanding), and that's another indication. Again, it's in the lap of the Gods . . . which, I realize, is no help at all to out-of-towners trying to book a trip! Hey, the divine Mrs. E! -- you have connections in the biz and you work within spitting distance of the theatre, right? What's your take on this?!

Oh The Divine Mrs. E! Where are you? We need you. In fact, I think I'll email her right now. I think I'll email the Doubt website too.

I emailed the Divine Mrs. E. I can't find an email address on the Doubt website. There is one for Telecharge (a link actually not an email), if you want to order tickets. Maybe you'd have to call the box office, but there's no number listed. I guess I'll wait for the expert opinion before trying anything else unless someone has another idea.

She said it's a crap shoot. So I guess you buy the ticket and hope for the best. If maggie was right and you can leave if the understudy is on that night, that's great for people who live close, but not so great for those of us that live far away.

I understand you'd all want to see RE in Doubt, but why would you leave if the understudy is on? The tickets are non-refundable, so you'd through the money away? That doesn't really make sense, unless chucking close to $100 away doesn't mean much - hey, I'll take it! ;D And it is a crap-shoot. You get the announcement in the Playbill when you arrive to the theatre, that's how it's done. Sorry I can't provide more
