Alice Leaving N2N?

My GF just told me that Alice is leaving N2N in Mid January but she said she didn't know an exact date.
Has anyone else heard that Alice is leaving in January?
If so does anyone know when her last performance will be?

I think that the bigger news here is that someone is willing to date you.

The entire cast, with the exception of Aaron Tveit, is signed for a full year, which would take them to late March. Tveit's contract apparently ends in February, but with Catch Me not coming in until next fall, I'd expect him to extend with the rest of the cast.

You should add a question mark in the thread title..

I hope not. I haven't seen the show yet and I need to see her.

I'm thinking she's going to extend...

Alice is contracted into March. Aaron, however, is not leaving when people think he's leaving - if I wanted to see him particularly, I'd see the show very soon.

This is just educated guesswork, but I hypothesize that Alice will not extend and will take a few months off before going on tour with the show. Don't shoot me if I'm wrong - as far as I know, nothing's been officially decided.

I hope that Alice and Aaron are still on the first week of April
when I will be there.......fingers crossed,

Thanks

Sydneyboi you should be hoping that the show is still open in the first week of April, before you worry about who is in it :P.

Interestingly enough, Kyle Dean Massey left Wicked this past weekend. If mina3 is correct, it would make sense, since I assume he'd be lined up to replace Aaron.

Will Aaron still be there the last week of January? I'm going on a trip to NYC and hope to see the original cast.

She needs to leave and get on vocal rest if she ever wants to be able to have a healthy instrument again.

Well you're certainly on top of things, adamgreer.

Anyone who is seeing this show in 2010 should not count on seeing Aaron. Alice is more of a question mark.

Honestly, how long are they gonna drag this Kyle Dean Massey thing out? By April exactly how old will he be?? He did a fine job in the role but when he tells Diana that he's "seventeen" it's laughable.

qolbinau,

You really think the show will close before April 1st ?

what about Mary Poppins ?

Thanks

Aaron SHOULD leave the show ASAP--the last time I saw the show, he looked so bored that I half-expected him to pull out a crossword puzzle during "I'm Alive".

^^Interesting. When I saw Catch Me If You Can, I loved how into the show he seemed.

[AC126748]

Posted: 12/3/09 at 11:54pm

Well, Catch Me If You Can is a new show in which he had a leading role. This is a part he's been doing on and off for nearly two years...it's time for him to move on.

Um, yeah. Kyle Dean Massey is a great sing, but he's way too old for this show. He could be Dan's younger brother.

[brochatkid]

They should give the part to Tim Young. He was an amazing Gabe and looks the right age.

so does anyone know for certain when Aaron is leaving?
I have tickets for Jan 7th, and was hoping to catch him if i can...

If the numbers don't start picking up, I'm afraid everyone will be leaving the show in Jan or Feb.

Why? Their nut is below 300K and they've made well above that every single week since their opening. They're not in any danger of closing. In fact, I expect them to announce they've recouped soon.

What is their weekly nut? Slightly above breaking even will keep them afloat for the short-term, but if they don't have more stellar numbers over the holidays, it's not going to provide the much-needed padding to get them through the first quarter slump unless they have some sort of truly remarkable advance sales.
