JAGGED LITTLE PILL announces reopening dates and replacements (UPDATED) — Page 6

Ok, so the announcement of HB MIGHT just get me back in to see this. (I saw it in Boston and didn't hate it, but certainly didn't love it due to the overbearing multitude of social issues so none are truly focused.) But love me some Heidi!

Interesting that *I believe* this is the first casting press release to have included pronouns.

JLP has included pronouns in bios since ART.

This was literally my exact response. I didn't know how big a fan of Heidi Blickenstaff I was until I learned I'd be willing to sit through this mess again if it meant hearing her sing this (unquestionably wonderful) score.

Same, hate this show, but love Heidi. Might have to go back.

Elizabeth Stanley said in an interview release today that upon returning in November, Blickenstaff and she will share the role through the winter. Then if all goes well, in January she'll be back full time.

I wonder if they will announce any kind of schedule while they're sharing. Much as I loved Elizabeth Stanley in this, I would REALLY love to see Heidi!

Super happy for Heidi, she's perfect for this role. I didn't realize that Celia Rose Gooding was not continuing with the show.

Like several other people have said: this was exactly my first reaction too.
But then I thought about it for a second and realized I hate this show more than I like Heidi Blickenstaff. So fortunately, no dilemma for me. Look forward to Blickenstaff's next role in NY.

That looks like DeAnne Stewart there as Frankie and not Morgan Dudley. They just started rehearsals this week, so I'd guess and say Dudley wasn't ready yet.

Haha, i watched the GMA video and had the same reaction (for the right priced ticket, though, i don't think its worth missing Heidi banging out Forgiven or Uninvited- i can only imagine).

Happy to skip this show.

Will continue to avoid this show and use Adblock on this site.

This last week has just been an utter dumpster fire for the show (entirely because of poor choices the producers have been constantly, consciously making for about 4 years). I'd be shocked if it runs to the end of October, much less 2022.
Anyone involved in this show needs to abandon ship while they still have a career.

I know this is off topic and I apologize, but their merch BLOWS.
Carry on!

This kinda feels like the nail in their coffin, tbh.

The show was always terrible in my opinion, and this just makes it even worse.

I feel like if they win big at the Tonys, this won’t be a blip on the radar for the general public. Besides the stuff with Nora was a management issue, and if they oust those people, the creative team shouldn’t really bear the brunt of it.
