I've enjoyed Mr. Riddle's performance as Raoul, but I recall really liking Mr. Donica as well, so not sad that he'll be subbing when we go up in early June.
I believe Mr. Crawford's contract usually comes up for renewal in October (I seem to recall him telling me that). He definitely enjoys this role, so I'm hoping he doesn't go anywhere anytime soon, especially given how poorly the role has been cast in London of late.
