BREAKING: Helen Lawson Tests Positive For COVID-19

[quote]Helen Lawson, '86', has ‘mild symptoms’ of Covid-19, which has killed over 3,200 people in New York City. She otherwise ‘remains in good health’, a spokesperson for the Broadway legend has said, and is 'self-isolating at home'.

[quote]Lawson had been working in preparation for a revival of MAME for the last several weeks, which has been scheduled to open later this year. The production is now up in the air. Lawson is one of the most high-profile celebrities to test positive for COVID-19 so far. This raises question about her appearance at a retrospective for Margo Channing earlier this week in which it was noted she had mild flu symptoms.

Oh, God. I hope this isn't the end for one of our heroes. Send thoughts and prayers her way, DL.

Helen Lawson does not have the virus. It is Fake News. I spoke to her on the phone the other day and she was fine. I told her that her revival of MAME will open in April or May on Broadway as planned because I am opening up Broadway again for the New York economy. She'll win the Tony when they do that award show. They say the awards are not going to happen. Fake News. It's the democrats saying that. Or CNN. or The New York Times. All fake. Helen is a trouper. She's even considering a role of Ambassador for me for one of the countries, we haven't decided which one yet. It will be her choice. If anyone can kick the hell out of this virus. it's Helen. She is a legend.

by Anonymousreply 96June 26, 2020 7:10 PM

In fact, Neely was a combination mainly of Garland and Betty Hutton, who shared Garland's drug problems. But a couple of other performers too.

Hutton co-starred in a Lawson Broadway musical and had her best number cut because she was bringing down the house nightly. Lawson went to the producers and threatened to leave the show if that situation wasn't corrected.
