Sad about Eden, thrilled about Creel!

Eden didn't leave anything. THEY jumped the gun.

I remember hearing Seth Rudetsky mentioning the possibility of Creel joining on SiriusXM. But they really should have confirmed the plans with Eden before making an announcement...

I'm very happy about Creel, but still upset over Eden. I was looking forward to seeing her in the role.

Do you think Gavin knows yet?

Haha... hopefully Gavin's aware. I'm guessing they learned their lesson and that they waited until Gavin signed a contract before announcing his status with the production. I'm also a bit puzzled that they put that Eden left for "personal reasons" when she never signed a contract in the first place.

Would rather have Gavin than Eden any day. The Wicked "monster" has already destroyed Eden's voice, in my opinion.

Thank God Eden is out of this. I just hate listening to her. And that's harsh, I know, but I cannot handle the sound of her voice. I'm thrilled for Gavin Creel. I've felt bad ever since Godspell fell through. Any chance they'll plumb that cast-that-never-was and also grab Diana DeGarmo for Sheila? I know she's an Idol-er, but I've actually always really liked her (yes, this ashames me somewhat).

Good for Creel...especially with GODSPELL not happening, it's nice that he's getting a chance to tackle a leading role this season. He's very talented and his 'GOING DOWN' is my favorite version of the song and my favorite track from the HAIR benefit CD.

Sad about Espinosa though...

He's been gone form the boards for far too long!

Disappointed about Eden as I was really looking forward to seeing her. Ecstatic about Gavin though. He will be perfect.

Gavin Creel > Jonathan Groff


Not the greatest actor in the world, but still, I'm stoked.

I'm thrilled about this news. Gavin Creel is a great choice for Claude. I wasn't too happy about Eden as Sheila in the first place. I feel like she'd just try to riff her way through "Easy to Be Hard" since that's what she did in everything she's done so far. It was refreshing to hear the simplicity of the song in the production in the Park.

Gavin is an awesome choice for "Hair". And maybe he can use his real hair.

I hope they're not using this as an excuse not to record the show now since Creel is already on the Actors Fund cast recording.

Gavin Creel and Will Swenson in the same show at the same time. My glands are going to be in overdrive.
