Well...this is disappointing. I hope Ari'el is okay!

Wow. I'm so upset. Ari'el is the reason I spent so much $ and am making the trip to come see it (from Canada, at that!) I'm a little surprised with who they replaced him with, and not at all looking forward to seeing it now.

What a shame, but it's pretty ironic that they replaced him with his costar from The Two Princes fairytale podcast.

I don't think the rest of the cast has been announced-I'll be very interested to see who they choose. Predictions? Dream casting for any specific role (s)?
At this point I'm seeing it because I have a friend in the show and because my Dad loves the music, as do I.

Posted: 12/10/19 at 10:07amYeah, no one else has been announced. I have plenty of dream cast ideas, but those are pointless, so I'm just looking forward to future press releases!

Sad to hear but even more sad they couldn't cast another Middle Eastern actor to take over the role. I love Noah but he's certainly not.

Sorry to hear about Ari'el as I'd think he would have been amazing! Very happy for Noah for this opportunity though and wish him the best.

I love Noah too, but as someone else noted, would have loved to seen him as Pharaoh instead. Ari'el and Noah are as opposite as possible. Very disappointing to lose Ari'el. He'd be ideal. I'm happy for Noah, but this isn't as thrilling. Glad I didn't purchase.

Noah is a great actor/singer and is more than capable. In addition, many of the youngsters in the backing choir will be able to see a fully out, gay man capable of (and having the opportunity to) lead a show - the same young man they looked up to on TV in The Real O'Neals. Or at least that's how I'd view this change of casting if I were in the backing choir!
His addition definitely is giving me interest in attending this. I'm praying Stephen Oremus can fix the Joseph Megamix and finally bring that up to date. It can't sound like late 80s disco pop forever...

When Ari'el was announced for this, I was very tempted to fly up for it. Sure glad I didn't make that commitment!
