Sorry if this is a frequent topic. Can anyone point me to a vacation schedule for the Hamilton actors? I want to make sure I'm seeing everyone before I spend my life's savings on tickets.
Thank you!
You know that this is live theatre and even if you do go when the cast is intact that someone could get sick or roll their ankle the night before, right? There's no way to "be sure."
Unless you've been diagnosed with a terminal disease, no show no matter how exceptional is worth spending your life's savings on.

Is it safe to assume it's a pretty small nest egg and the poster has plenty of time to start again?

Youll be sorry !!! But go right ahead and spend your hard earned dollars. Don't worry I wont come back and say " I told you so "

Because you just got that out of the way already?
A Hamilton shaming thread is like catnip to Mr Roxy.

Yes I know that this is live theater, thank you. There's no need to be rude. I was just hoping to find out if there is a vacation schedule somewhere. Thanks for your time.

No terminal diseases here, just a bit of hyperbole. Thanks for your time.
No one was rude. Sarcastic, maybe, but not rude.
Since none of the actors are above the title, it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't announce any of the vacations.
To be truthful, the show itself is the star, and we've heard great things about what few understudies have gone on.

This is really helpful. Thanks so much!

The show is a total murderer's row, or as Lin tends to say, a "deep bench." Whoever is onstage will be fine. Although, sure, I get that you want to see the originals when you go, so would I...
Does anyone know if Thayne Jepson is back from injury yet?

Shouldn't someone with your username be able to get his last name right?

Heading to see Hamilton next week on Weds nov 18. Was wondering if anyone knows of any one in the cast that is on vacation. I know you never know about illness. I know groff is out for the month and thayne is back the following week. Just preparing. Thanks

I just saw the show Wednesday evening and he was not back yet. Daniel Watts was in for Samuel Seabury and was great. It was also nice to see Ephraim Sykes (another Newsies alum) as George Eacker.

Chris Jackson (Washington) was out this week on vacation. I saw Sydney James Harcourt in the part of Washington and he was great. BUT, per Chris' twitter, he should be back by the time you see your show!
FYI: On Broadway.com's Live at 5 with Nicolette Robinson (Leslie Odom Jr.'s wife), she said Leslie and her were going on vacation Jan 12-17 and he will be out of the show those dates.

Any word on any vacations next week? Specifically Tuesday 2/2. I know that Daveed Diggs is due to be out 2/6 through 2/11. Just curious. I know that illness comes up at any time.
Not sure about next week, but I was at the show last night and Anthony Ramos and Jasmine Cephas Jones were both out. I checked their Instagrams and it seems like they are presumably on vacation together this week.

Where did you get that information? Seeing the show on February 6. Any word on who else might be out?
