Yeah, and Richard's replaced his "Jim Henson shirt" with a suit jacket and tie.

Wow I totally forgot about that. I'm so sorry I didn't attend the funeral service they had here in NYC. But I was kind of young at the time, around 13.

While we're on the subject, does anyone know whether or not Louise Gold took part in the London service? I mean we all know she took part in the NY one, but I've not come across any specific reference to her having participated in the London one. In many ways it seems likely that she would have done (being their first British Muppeteer and all that), however, she was in final rehersals for the cast change of a West End production of the musical Anything Goes at the time, which might sugguest not. Just curious.

She did take part in the London memorial, singing a song from Les Miserables. I think it was Bring him home.

Thank you,

Now I wonder, can anyone do a proper listing of the main running order differences between the New York and London memorials?
