I saw it a couple of weeks ago and he exited the show mid-way through...right after that father-son song & dance number...and a cover took over soon after.
His voice seemed fine and he wasn't swaying side to side or anything. But maybe the ridiculousness of that number finally dawned on him...
My father (AIDS)
My sister (AIDS)
My uncle and my cousin and her best friend (AIDS, AIDS, AIDS)
The gays and the straights
And the white and the spades
That vacation with NPH was when he was supposed to be out until the 28th. He mentioned that while on vacation, he was also on vocal rest. He could certainly be out on ordered vocal rest
Vocal rest?! For this show? He barely sings. He needs to learn how to yell without destroying his voice. I'm appalled that he'd be out on vocal rest for this part.
