You know that how?"

A friend has direct contact with her. Chelsea will still be getting shows, but from what I've been told, it's going to be more sporadic (not every Sunday, nor on closing/travel days, but it could be random days here and there.)

When MK was Standby, Emily Koch went over 6 weeks without calling out."

Yeah I know how long Koch could go without calling out. Just like Jackie is on the Broadway.

Also I saw Jessica on Sunday matinees too. More than one actually and I saw Emily on days other than Sunday matinee.

Emily did perform besides just Sundays, and yes, Jess didn't take it off every week. But Sunday has been the most consistent day for Standbys (these past two Sundays have been Chelsea.. and Emily went on consistently enough to create the hashtags #SchultheisSunday)

That hashtag was created by my friend.

Speaking of Chelsea.... I've heard shes PHENOMENAL in her role. She's in her 7th straight performance as Elphie (Poor Jess is sick, 5 days before she's supposed to leave)

Well Jess did Wed and Sat matinee and Chelsea did both Thursday shows, Friday, Saturday night and both today. She's on her 8th show in 3 weeks but 6 in this week alone.

No surprise to me.  She's incredible.  I hope I get to see her in the role one day.

Ah, my mistake, that's still pretty impressive, considering these are still her first performances in the role. With tomorrow off, Jess hopefully can do her final week, but if not, we have a chance (very slim, but) of seeing an Olivia Polci performance :)

Jessica posted on IG that she's better and will be back for her final week.

I would love to see Olivia again. She is hands down the best Elphaba I've ever seen and she's only been on twice. 

Jess is feeling better though and will most likely do her last week. I'm there for the last 4.

I was at Chelsea's 4th performance on the evening of the 14th and thought she was wonderful. Once she lives in the part a bit longer, I have no doubt in my mind that she will be a stunning Elphaba.

And she's gone. Not before riffing her way out! A Celine Dion like riff for the last ahaha-aaaaa!

I was there last night and it was like a rock concert. So many of Jessica's fans came out of the woodwork for her last show. It was absolutely insane and I'll never forget how special it was. There were probably 50+ people waiting at the stage door after. Jess was giving out pens she had made that look like broomsticks. She put a little bit of green makeup on every single one. Such a great momento for an unforgettable night.

I can't wait to hear what she's doing next. She is incredible.
