Also, we have heard that Krysta Rodriguez will be replacing Alisan Porter. Post other replacements here when then are announced.
Oh, and if anyone happens to see Kevin Worley in the show tonight or soon (I will be going on the 22nd) post a review.
EDIT: Apparently all new 9 people will come in on the 24th, including Tam's and Davis' permanent replacements.

So sad. I loved Alisan when I saw the show in S.F.

Nick Adams is probably the most beautiful thing I've seen in life, on stage, or on the street.
And yes I couldn't even roll my tongue up to say something.
