Letting both her director and producer know the good news and when her due date would be, Wolfston said that her producer responded with his congratulations, letting her know that there were plans of a presentation the following spring with a view to getting the show on Broadway soon after. “In regards to my pregnancy timeline, he wrote: ‘I’m sure we can figure it out’.”
“I collapsed at my computer as I read my producer’s response to my agents. While he appreciated my willingness to do the reading close to my due date, he ‘simply couldn’t showcase the show to maximum effect with [Cortney] in that condition’. My worst fear had just come true,” she told followers. “My pregnancy was a ‘condition’. The career-changing role I’d created was being taken from me and my choice to pursue a family was the cause.
“When it came time to plan for the next presentation, my director reached out to tell me they were now looking for celebrities to replace me. Now that Ziggy had been born, my pregnancy could no longer be the focus. To me it seemed that possibly my ‘condition’ had never been the reason I was being replaced to begin with. Perhaps my ‘condition’ was just a scapegoat”, she hypothesised.
