Is anybody in Spring Awakening taking vacations any time soon? I heard somewhere Jonathan Groff was about to take a vacation, but I was not sure.

Today is the first day of Jonathan Groff's vacation. He is shooting a pilot and has said he will return on Sunday, November 18th.
Skylar Astin and Phoebe Strole are filming a movie. Skylar will be back on Tuesday, so I've heard... no word on if/when Phoebe will return.
Jon B. Wright's hiatus goes into effect on Tuesday; he's filming a movie. Not sure when he'll be back but he said he will be returning.

So does Groff's leave mean that Lea Michele won't perform, either?

does this mean Matt Doyle will be playing Melchior for a couple weeks?
Yup I guess Matt Doyle will be Melchior for those weeks, I havent seen matt perform yet.
Word is that John Gallagher will be leaving the show in early to mid-December and that Jonathan Wright's return isn't necessarily a certainty.

I've heard that John Wright definitely wants to come back, but no one knows for sure whether Phoebe is coming back. Jesse Swenson and Matt Doyle will be splitting Melchior.
I really hope Phoebe Strole comes back. I'm seeing the show on December 16, provided everything goes well strike-wise, and she's the only cast member I've never met.

I've asked this question before, but I'm always interested. How do you think the show will be after a big chunk of its OBC leaves? I've heard good things about the guy that replaced Gideon Glick, so lets hope its just as good as more people leave!

The thing that I'm scared for, is what will happen once John Gallagher Jr, Lea Michele,and Jonathan Groff leave the production. If they don't get quality replacements, then I don't quite know what will happen. But I do wish Jonathan the best of luck on his pilot.
this is what everyone says when it comes to cast changes in any show..."its going to be so hard to replace ______ "...It's been done before, the show will be fine.

I spoke to JBW on Fri Night-He is leaving for 4 weeks to do a film But he will be back. Gerard & Matt will alternate as Hanschen {Matt will also be dong Melchior for a week}.

I heard they cast a temporary replacement for Hanschen named Drew.
