Just writing to see if anyone knows the future of Carrie Manolakos who is currently Sohpie in Mama Mia....will she remain on broadway or go back on tour? She deserves to be on broadway...girl has an amazing voice and she connects with the audience. My wife and I are big fans of hers!

I know there is a new Sophie due on Sept. 24th...anyone know if Carrie will remain with the Mama Mia cast until then or will she leave early. I am hoping to see her one more time before she goes.

Thanks to everyone who responds!

I saw her in the role and I LOVED her. There are some great clips of her on youtube. Her version of I will Always Love You is just amazing.

I do know that she was brought on to finish Carrie Anderson's run while she left to do Avenue Q.

I loved just reading this thread title. I couldn't agree more. This girl has one of the best voices I've heard in, well, EVER. Such a great actress with such commanding presence as well.
