I just saw this on the WhatsOnStage board. I can't post there for some reason, so I thought I MUST check. Is Andrew Rennells temporarily in Book of Mormon in London?!

Surprised not to find a mention that Gavin Creel is off at the moment and has been replaced by Andrew Rannells who originated the role on Broadway (also was one half of "The New Normal" couple on TV). Any initial disappointment on hearing the announcement was rapidly eliminated by Rannells who is phenomenal in the role of Elder Price. No slip in the programme, and no mention on the London website = poor showing.

Buddied up with another single in the matinee lottery and his card was drawn. Fifth attempt for me. Brilliant front row centre seat. Great show.

Sorry. Meant to post this on the West End board. Now I don't know how to delete it. Doh.

No, and it's spelled Rannells. (Check his tweets; he's not in London.)

Ashley Day has been filling in as Elder Price.

It isn't true, but I think it would be absolutely adorable to cover for your boyfriend in a show while he takes some time off. Gorgeous couple.

That's funny, 'cuz Mike Doyle isn't playing Elder Price.
