yeah usually the u/s will sing songs from the roles that they cover- ie when Beth Curry did it she sang "Whipped into Shape," etc.

According to ibdb, Casey Leigh Thompson will be joining the company as a swing from April 23-May 4. Anyone heard anything about this? I'm assuming she'll be covering Beth's track.
Also according to ibdb, Haven's last day is May 11th.

No word on Paris.
But I did hear that Kate Rockwell is going to be the next Margot.

Beth looks different in every wig. It took me 3204 years to realize that the court stenographer and the sorority girl who slides down the pole was the same person, haha. Isn’t Beth also the understudy for Pilar and Margot? Hm… has Asmeret ever been out? I’d never heard of someone else going on as Pilar.

^May 11th is officially my goodbye day to 3 of my favorite performers from their current shows. After Annaleigh’s last in Wicked, I may have to go to the 7pm show of LB to see Haven, and then fly to LA to see Megan Hilty’s last in Wicked LA, lol – sorry off-topic.

I saw Beth's Pilar when my 3rd time seeing the show when I finally saw Laura Bell.
It was... interesting.

Asmeret has been out. I've seen Michelle Kitrell. It was...a very different portrayal.

Ohhhh... would you mind telling more? I'm curious about both Michelle's and Beth's portrayals of Pilar.

I love Pilar's character really I do, and I don't know about Kitty, but Beth is just not suited to fit that role in my opinion. She did with it what she could - but like Pilar has the type of attitude that like Haven has, or even the woman who does the Laker Girls lines. Pilar is a really strong personality- and needs to be done by someone who can back it up.
It pains me to say it because I think Beth is adorable usually - but it was pretty awful. I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt that it was her first time taking over and she didn't have the chance to do with it what she could have.

Not to be a newbie, but how does Beth do the costume change down the pole? It's really been bugging me and I can't figure out why.

paul caanan is the one in the green stuff at the top and he slides down part way, and then beth slides the rest of the way............... i think.

I sat 2nd row center this past Saturday and was able to look up the pole. It was a guy in the green mask (not sure who) and saw the girl's skirt as she waited to slide down.

I'm not trying to sound in any way racist, but how flat do some of Pilar's lines land when she is played by a white actress? Particularly her lines in Positive
