[OM] available light stage photography: 85/2, 100/2, 100/2.8

I am in favor of the 49mm filter size Olympus lenses, and I currently own the
100/2.8.  I enjoy the lens, but in low light situations, it is a bit slow 
stopped
down to f/4 or f/5.6 for sharpness.  (Mainly elementary school stage photography
in these situations.)

I like the idea of the extra focal length of the 100/2, but the 85/2 seems like
a good compromise in speed vs. cost.  

Can anyone with experience using the 85/2 or 100/2 comment on their usability
for available light/ stage photography?  Strengths, weaknesses.... Size, which
to go for....

Thanks, James.
