I think this will be the first time I’ve ever seen a Broadway show, both with the National Tours or on Broadway, where one of the main lead performers is out. From the pics and clips I’ve seen of Amber Gray she looks phenomenal. Really hate that I’ll miss her. Hope I’m not disappointed in Afra Hines.
I personally don’t find Eurydice to be a demanding role. I find that role to be the least demanding out of all the principals. I do love Eva and find her extremely talented, so I do hope she takes a good amount of time to rest, and doesn’t push herself.
If I recall correctly, she has another project coming up. Has she announced a departure date? I just found out today that I’m for sure going to be in NYC for work in early January. I’m actually going to fly in a couple days early to see extra shows. I’m torn between seeing all new shows (I think I’ll have 10 slots - two of which are already taken) or revisiting Hadestown and Oklahoma!
When I saw Hadestown, Eva was out so I’d love to see it with her. If she has already left the show by then, I might opt for something new instead. I notice Tuesdays are considerably cheaper than Friday thru Saturday.
