Jennifer Bowles, Corbin Reid's replacement as the new swing, was on in Libby's track tonight. What happened to Libby? She's been out for a while, longer than a week.

Chase is going on for the first time on Broadway as Johnny tonight.

The updated understudies are:
Krystina Alabado- Whatsername, Extraordinary Girl
Jennifer Bowles- Heather
Jason Kappus- Tunny, Will
P.J. Griffith- St. Jimmy

Since Theo left, Miguel took over his "Holiday" solo and Gerard took over his "Too Much Too Soon" solo. Omar had gone on as an understudy for those.

So, PJ Griffith will be on for St. Jimmy all next week and Jason Kappus will be making his Will debut on Sunday, both shows.
Krystina Alabado has also been talking about the possibility of her going on for one of the leads she covers.

Just a question, when Corbin Reid would go on for Whatsername, did they let her get away with no wig or did she have a Rebecca Naomi Jones type wig?

Seems like Van and Justin have been out quite a bit already, though they just started two weeks ago. Is there a bug or something going around?

I'm pretty sure Jason Kappus is playing Will next Sunday 3/20, not Saturday 3/19.

I haven't heard anything concrete, but I was told by a friend who reads all of those tumblr things that Van injured his back. He has been out since the evening performance last Sunday.

Justin's wife is pregnant and apparently that's why he was out last week and will be again this Sunday.

Jennifer Bowles will be making her Heater debut this Sunday, March 27. Until BJA comes back, Chase is on for St. Jimmy today and tomorrow (Thursday), PJ Griffith will be on Friday and both shows Saturday, and Chase will be on again both shows Sunday. Anyone know when Andrew Call is coming back?

I'll be going Sunday...I swore to myself I needed to see this before it closed, and this weekend seems to be the only good option left with BJA driving prices through the roof in April.

I'll report on all the role changes and how everyone is when I get back, just hoping it all is still held together on Sunday with all these changes.
