Any idea what Noah will be playing in SP?

I don't know, but I do know that the role requires him to get rid of most of his hair. Originally i heard he was shaving his head, but he says that isn't the case. Still, it will be weird to see Noah without his fro.

I thought it was the Professor, but now I can't remember if that was what he told me himself, or if that was something I heard from someone else, so that might not be it...

But yes, there will be a haircut, lol. :)

Awww, Noah with no hair! Weirddddd.

And yeah, does anyone know what he'll be?

1. Tonight's (Thurs 12/27) board:


2. Confirmed, yes Noah = the Professor in South Pacific

3. Tonight was my most favorite Whipped Into Shape performance *ever*. That has nothing to do with understudies, that was just a share. :)

Care to elaborate?

Bryce Ryness will apparently be replacing Noah...from what I heard. Anyone know anything about him?

[SahDu]

Haven't heard anything about Noah's replacement. I'm sure it will be odd to see Aaron without the hair...

That's him above. I saw Bryce in the RENT Non-Equity tour in February 2006 in Cleveland. He was okay. He wasn't too strong on the singing, but was okay. When I saw the tour again in August 2006 in Pittsburgh, an understudy was on, so I didn't see him then.

Holy crap!
I saw him in the rent tour, and he was a pretty good Roger!
then again, I am biased about that tour because my friend was in it. lol
i'm glad that when I see LB, i'll get to meet him again!

except he is leaving Blonde in 2 days.

Alex, I do believe Broadway_Bound meant he/she saw Bryce in the Rent tour and is excited taht they will get to see him again in LB when they go. Noah was never in "Rent" to my knowledge, so that wouldn't make sense :-P

Also, Tracy Jai Edwards will be on vacation starting January 7th, I think is what was said and I assume it's for a week....

Yeah, thanks cary, that's what I ment

When Tracy Jai Edwards goes on vacation, will Becky Gulsvig go on as Serena for the whole time or is there anyone else who covers Serena? I only ask because I haven't noticed anyone go on besides Tracy, when Leslie Kritzer was still in the role, or Becky.

If I'm not mistaken, I think Cara Cooper (who is a Swing) also understudies Serena.

[DRSisLove]

No offense to Becky (who I have also seen as Serena), but Cara is the best Serena currently in the cast. You'll want to see her when she's on, haha.

[Broadway_Bound_Star]

Posted: 12/28/07 at 10:13pm

Yeah, I really don't know if I'd enjoy seeing Becky as Serena. I don't know how well she could pull it off.

How did Nick Kenkel do as Nikos?

[carymetorent2]

Posted: 12/29/07 at 1:57am

I actually think Nick is hilarious as Nikos. Haven't seen him on in a while, but he was really funny wen I last saw him.

Also, Cara and Becky both understudy Serena and I think they are both great, although different in their own ways. Becky is AN EXCELLENT Serena though...that girl can do no wrong in my book.

Understudies last night were Becky Gulsvig for Margot and Lindsay Nicole Chambers for Enid. Liked Lindsay! Becky was good as well, though a bit less quirky for Margot. Last I saw it was with Annaleigh.

[maya5892]

When Cara and Becky go on for Serena, or when Becky goes on for Margot, do they have different colored hair then the brunette Serena and the blonde Margot?

[MadProps86]

Posted: 12/29/07 at 4:14pm

I've heard Becky just uses her regular Delta Nu wig that might be styled differently. There's a picture of her in Serena costume one her website and it looks like her same wig. I think I saw someone say she had the red wig for Margot as well.

I don't know about Cara Cooper when she goes on as Serena, but I believe Beth Curry gets a blonde wig when she goes on as Margot.

i'm pretty sure lindsay nicole chambers (why must broadway folk always have 3 names) also covers serena. just thought i'd throw that in.

[FrontRowFirst]

Posted: 12/29/07 at 5:07pm

Yes, last night Becky wore the same wig (her own) when she went on for Margot. Styled the same.

[Broadway_Bound_Star]

Posted: 12/29/07 at 7:29pm

Isn't that the same wig she wears when she goes on as Elle?
I don't know something about Becky bothers me. I can't see her giving margo the justice that Annaleigh gave her. I just can't wait to see this show next week!!
