Heather Tom will be starring in the Broadway play, The Heiress which has a run from April 24 to May 20. Not sure if she will be doing that an B&B at the same time but thats quite a bit of work so I can imagine her being written out for at least a month to work on this

Is this play the same as the movie that starred Olivia de Havilland and Montgomery Clift? If so, I think HT will do a great job. She's very talented.

It's not like Katie's on that much. Surely with their taping schedule, it wouldn't be had to pre-tape enough scenes to mitigate any time off she wants.

You got a point there. I wonder though if they will write her out with Donna. JG is pregnant again and with her story ending with Nick's upcoming departure, I can see both Logan sisters taking a vacation and visiting Stephen wherever he is, with Donna staying for an extended length of time by the time Katie returns, presumably in late June/early July, assuming HT does go on hiatus

JG is preggers? I guess I haven't paid attention.

I guess they could officiall send her out of town, but the way B&B has spent entire weeks with nothin' but the kiddies on, most of the adults don't get airtime anyway.

It is==the movie was adapted from the play (which is adapted from Henry James' Washington Square)--and I agree it's a good fit for her.
