Does anyone know who Andy's replacement will be? And if you don't know who do you think would be a good choice. I bet they'll just bring someone back because Jersey Boys is pretty lazy with their casting lately, but if they bring someone back I hope it's Matt Bailey, I would love to see him again. Also does anyone know when he's leaving?

I saw Jersey Boys last weekend and at the stage door Andy said his last day would be December 1. I don't know who will be replacing him.

If it's Dec. 1 we won't know for a while. But I also agree that it'd be nice to have an outside hire. Hell, Andy was one and he's one of the best Tommys out there.

John Gardner just posted on his FB page that he'll be playing Tommy DeVito for 5 weeks starting Dec. 3! I've seen John a couple times and he is terrific! I hope NYC enjoys him!
