Fresh from starring as Roxie Hart in London’s West End, Shields has made the journey back home to the States to take over the same role, which was recently played by Charlotte d’Amboise.
At left, cast members Debra Monk and Bryn Dowling, as well as friends Liza Minnelli and Christopher Sieber (Spamalot), are seen as they await Shields’ arrival at a party to celebrate her opening night. Below, several company members welcome Shields to the show at Bond 45 on West 45th Street in New York City.
