Proving that a great show is always in fashion, LOVE, LOSS, AND WHAT I WORE, with its starry rotating cast and compulsively entertaining subject matter, is the toast of Off-Broadway. Entering its second smash year at the Westside Theatre, this intimate collection of stories by Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron, directed by Karen Carpenter and produced by Daryl Roth, is based on the best-selling book by Ilene Beckerman. Like the book, the show uses clothing and accessories and the memories they trigger to tell funny and poignant stories that everyone can relate to, creating one of the most enduring theatergoing experiences in New York. Joining Kim Zimmer will be Katrina Bowden (“30 Rock“), Sabrina Le Beauf (“The Cosby Show”), Orfeh (Legally Blonde the Musical), and Barbara Rhoades (The Goodbye Girl).

A spokesperson for The Bold and the Beautiful have confirmed that über talented Brown has been dropped to recurring.

What is the reason for this sudden change?  Days co-executive producer, Gary Tomlin said that the character of Taylor will be taken in a new direction.

Personally, I think they should keep Natalia as Taylor and bring Tamara back as Ava.

“Rebecca Herbst will continue on as Elizabeth Webber,” ABC said in a statement. “The show is thrilled she will remain on the canvas to portray the beloved character in many more poignant and emotional stories. Fans will be pleased to see Rebecca continue the role she created.”

“After four-and-a-half incredible years as a member of the All My Children cast, I have made the extremely difficult decision to leave the Pine Valley family that I have come to love and respect so much,” Egan posted on her official website.

ABC issued this statement: “Storyline dictates the exit of Elizabeth Webber this spring. The next few months promise to be a not miss story for the character. We at ABC and General Hospital wish Rebecca Herbst nothing but the best in all of her future endeavors.”

Hot on the heels of Mark Hapka (Nathan) being let go from Days of Our Lives, come the news that Shelley Hennig (Stephanie) and Jay Kenneth Johnson (Philip) have both decided  to leave the show in the next few weeks.

“It just feels right,” Hennig told Soap Opera Digest of her decision to leave. “I have been preparing for this for awhile, so I have said my mental good-byes. I will miss the faces I see here every day, but everybody has been really encouraging and has embraced my decision.”
