Neither of the understudies replacing Ben. Someone new is coming in.  Should be announced soon.

Cheapest ticket on Stubhub for that date is $700 all the way up to $4,860.00.  And telecharge will not even load on my computer.  I wonder if it's related?

Does Ben typically do matinee performances? I have tickets for Wed Sep 20 matinee. I saw him this past Jan but would love to see him one last time.

Aside from illness, he does ALL performances.

do you think that any more of the cast will be leaving November 19th as well? 

[Miles2Go2]

Posted: 8/15/17 at 1:49pm

From the DEH website: "Ben Platt will play his final performance as Evan Hansen on Sunday, November 19. He will also be out of performances August 10-16, the 3pm performance on September 3, and the 8pm performance on September 6. Michael Lee Brown and Colton Ryan will continue to understudy the role of Evan Hansen and new casting will be announced soon."

He should play all other performances barring illness.

This makes me so sad but I can't wait to see what he does next. But speaking of replacements, I'm DYING for a female Evan.

I'm currently running a Twitter poll with the best choices I was able to come up with. Who would you like to see take over for Ben Platt?

Ansel Elgort! 

DEH was great, saw it in previews but I could think of 1000 other things to do with $1000.

I'm seeing DEH 11/8 at 8:00 p.m. Now not even available on Telecharge. Price range on Stub Hub: $360 - 10,950.00. Cray Cray. Makes me feel good about my $250 Right Mezzanine Row C seat.

The ability to list a price for $10,950 doesn't mean you will sell one for that... usually just means they don't want to undersell, so are waiting to see what the going rate becomes. Or waiting until closer to the date to become one of the last options for the rich and desperate.

Yeah! Now people can stop asking. I think he extended a week because his awesome Will and Grace performance.  So happy for him, he has won every award possible for it, he is so perfect every time I see it, but on to bigger and better things.  Congratulations Ben!

Was grateful enough to be able to see Ben perform the role twice, and for awhile I was hoping to go back and see how MLB and Colton Ryan play it, but now all I want is to see Ben one last time!! I hope he takes a long well deserved break before he moves onto other things. 

[Margo319]

Posted: 8/15/17 at 4:26pm

Ben will be out of the show on September 3rd, and the evening performance of September 6th.  I wanted to tell everyone this so there isn't a thousand more threads on him taking time off.  The more ya know!

Liza, is the replacement someone famous?
