LOVE NEVER DIES - US Tour — Page 10

“I personally feel that the billing should've been changed to indicate Mr. Murphy as the star at this point. It's really not fair to call him an understudy when he's regularly performing the role at least six times per week, and has been doing so for some time now. He's also a great ambassador for the show, with a strong and enthusiastic social media presence (I've not seen anything on social media from Mr. Cortes since the tour began)."

I think it is a contractual/union issue. They would have to terminate Cortes’ contract to “officially”give Murphy the role. Also, as an understudy, they can pay him less and save more money."

That sounds plausible, but how long can someone not perform a role and still be fulfilling the terms of his/her contract?

You might actually get Gardar Thor Cortes.

Now wouldn’t that be amazing!!!

Well, it would certainly be unusual!

Giants - I haven't read any and would love to hear what they were.. I know at one point after the DVD there was speculation that ALW wanted to change the ending, but it doesn't sound like that occurred

He did also offer several caveats in the comments, saying "As of now" and "Subject to change."

Anyone attend tonight's Tampa opening? Was Gardar in fact on as Phantom?

Having seen BNM & GTC each 2.5 times in LND, I will say they are different but both are wonderfully memorable.

Where would you be catching this at and why a large chunk of money? I caught it in Orlando Florida and I live in Jacksonville so just drove down. I did not need a hotel room for the night. I entered the lottery and won a ticket that I picked 12th row Orchestra for $40. They did offer loser seats for a big discount at least at my venue. It was well worth it, but if you have to buy an airline ticket, get a hotel, etc just to see the show, it may not be worth it. I saw the original in London and enjoyed it just as well as the tour.
