Any scheduled vacations for Come From Away?

I would like to see Come From Away with the full original cast, if possible.  I know that there is always the chance people will be sick, but are there any scheduled vacations coming up?

Also, Jenn Colella was out of the show last night.  Is she on vacation this week?

Thanks in advance!

I've only heard about Julie Reiber being on this coming Sunday and Monday.

And since no one is above the title, it may not be something that is published.

I heard Kendra was on vacation or will be soon. Not sure for how long, though

I was there last night and Jenn, Kendra, and Rodney were all out.

Julie Reiber posted something on her Facebook fan page about being on for Bev/Others August 8-13 as well.

The week before the Tonys, Jenn Colella and Christian Borle did a little video chat/interview thing, Jenn was talking about some friends were getting a house somewhere at the beach for a vacation and she said he should come, he asked when, she said "2nd week in August." It caught my attention because that's when I have a ticket to see CFA, and lines up with the above post about Aug 8-13.

Rodney Hicks was just on vacation. Kendra is currently on vacation. Caesar has a vacation coming up shortly. We now know Jenn's vacation dates.

Just checked with my sources. Official vacation dates:

 

Rodney Hicks: June 15 - 29.

Kendra Kassebaum: June 29 - July 5

Caesar Samayoa: July 18 - 23

Chad Kimball: July 23 - August 3

Jenn Colella: August 8 - 13 & January 8 - 14.

 

Don't know about any other vacation dates right now.

Sorry, but Caesar is NOT on vacation during that listed time. One of my sources got some dates wrong. Geno Carr & Q Smith will be on vacation shortly(exact dates unknown). It's believed Caesar will be on vacation sometime in August.

Yikes - please not the last week of August!

Saw it on July 2nd and Kendra and Rodney were the only two out.  Both of the understudies did a great job.  It's such an ensemble cast that the absences seemed to be absorbed pretty easily.

Thursday and Friday this past week saw three covers go on. Julie Rieber made her debut and went on for Jenn Colella. Tamika Lawrence & Josh Breckenridge we're also on.

So does anyone know who will be out around the 18th of July?

FYI, Geno Carr is on vacation this week; July 10 - 16.

both Sharon Wheatley & Chad Kimball are on vacation this week. Susan Dunstan will be on for Sharon & Tony LePage will be on for Chad.

Has anyone seen Susan or Tony in the role(s)? Seeing the show Thursday night.

rwkpa26, I've heard very good things about Tony from a few different people. Has anyone seen Tamika Lawrence in any of her tracks? I would love to hear about her performance. I've been a fan of hers since I saw her in the ensemble of Matilda.

To my knowledge, Petrina, Lee & Caesar haven't missed a show yet.

Tony has gone on for Geno, Chad & Joel.

Josh has only gone on for Rodney.

John Jellison has only gone on for Joel.

Sue Dunstan has gone on for Sharon & Astrid.

Tamika has gone on for Kendra & Q.

Julie Reiber has gone on for Jenn & Kendra.

 

I believe Josh will be going on for Caesar during his vacation sometime in September.

Is this info from a reliable source? I'm going back in late August and hoping Caesar won't be out!

I saw Sue the other day on for Sharon...She has a FANTASTIC voice. So happy she's continuing as a full time principle with the Toronto production!

As others have already said, Josh was absolutely spectacular in the role. Tony and Sue also performed last night without missing a beat. Fantastic performance by all.

Anyone know how Julie Reiber did as Bev? We're seeing it 8/13 and were looking forward to seeing Jenn so I'm disappointed, but keeping an open mind.

[ACL2006]

Forgot to mention it earlier, but Lee is on vacation this week. John Jellison is on for him. 

 

And just a reminder that Jenn Colella is on vacation next week with Julie Rieber on as Bev/Annette.

 

Caesar will be on vacation September 5 - 10 with Josh scheduled to go on for him.

I just saw the announcement that Kendra will be playing Mother in the 5th Avenue Theatre production of Ragtime in Seattle from Oct 13-Nov 5.  Does anyone know if she will be coming back to CFA after that?  Seems weird for her to be doing that in the middle of a Broadway run and we hadn't heard about it.
