Don't be offended that you were advised to form your own opinion. I'm sure it wasn't meant in a snotty way. I agree that it is puzzling that people want to hear how an understudy is or what people they don't even know think of a show. It blows my mind when people ask of me while I'm working, "How's the show?" Do you think I am free to say, "It stinks! Boy, were YOU robbed"? If I say, "It's great," they say, "Oh, well, of course you HAVE TO say that." :) Just go & have fun & don't even think about it. The depth of talent on Bway is amazing. Besides, I have seen understudies who are worlds better than the regulars they're covering. BTW, I love Hunter in the role, but have seen Jonathan is LSOH & F&T & he is terrific, a real talent. Haven't seen Darren yet, but I don't think he's gone on yet.
