He JUST joined the show!! At least he's not "sick" and it's only for a couple weeks.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Uhhh this was announced in the same press release that said he was joining the cast.

That said, I'm really happy Grant Turner will be on as Zach.

I was just about to ask..

Out of the three Zachs I've seen (Beresse, Gruber, Turner), Grant Turner was probably the best one.

Hopefully the show's reverting back to its original staging and blocking, especially the Cassie/Zach "The Music and the Mirror" section.

A personal "thank YOU, Mario" for giving US a break and letting us have our show the way it was intended to be seen and performed.

The show is better without him. Too bad he's coming back at all.

Why don't they just reopen the Gaiety Burlesque and book him there?

When Mr. Lopez isn't on, the show does revert back to its original staging.

We had to do the same thing when Frankie Avalon was playing Teen Angel...he had his own accompanist and arrangement of "Beauty School"
