In a 2007 posting on the BroadwayWorld message board, Nemetz recalled how she got to play both Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly on the same day during the original production of Chicago: "I replaced Chita, with Ann Reinking and with Gwenn [sic] (Verdon) ... and I played both roles - I stood by for both Gwenn and Chita, and they were kind enough to let me play both roles in the same day.
"[2] Nemetz also created the role of Delores Dante in the Broadway production of Working, earning a Drama Desk Award nomination.
She appeared with Peter Allen in his one man show Up in One both on Broadway and in Los Angeles.
She then co-starred with Chita Rivera as Angel in The Rink filling in for Liza Minnelli.
She made her New York City opera debut in the role of Gladys in the revival of The Pajama Game.
