With her leaving in August, and DeQuina leaving in June...Annaleigh Ashford will be the sole original Soritity trio left

no word as of yet, but just a weird thought. Both Leslie and Shoshana played Shelley in Hairspray...maybe they could share another role *wink wink* though I doubt Sho would do this part after being Elphaba.
Edit: Does anyone think Jenn Colella would be an awesome replacement for Orfeh when/if she chooses to leave the company?

Shoshana also looks about 20 years too old.
I wish Leslie Kritzer all the best!
I love Kritzer, but no, they shouldn't switch her with Shindle. Shindle's belt in "Legally Blonde Remix" is to die for.
I totally agree.

Maybe not 20 years too old, but at least 5. With makeup, I think she could just barely pass as a believable, but she'd do an AMAZING job with it if she was cast
Edit: She's about the same age as Leslie

she is leaving in august sometime.
we all know that annaleigh can hold the trio down after dequina and leslie both leave.
You can tell she has fun with the show and she will miss it.
in the meet the cast on the LB website beth curry is an u/s for serena and i heard tracy jai edwards u/s already for leslie. i hope its someone in da cast already.
Is there a release date for her Les Mouches cd? I've been dying to hear it ever since they announced the recording in Playbill.
switching Kate and Leslie would be rediculous. I agree with the belt at the end of remix AND Kate is like insanely tall so that just wouldn't look right compared to annaleigh and dequina ( soon to be asmeret)
Hmmm, Jenn as Paulette. I never thought of that, but I bet she would be pretty good!

Ridiculous. With an "i." Please.
And no Les Mouches release, at least not anytime soon, thanks to Patti.
But about Kritzer, she's hilarious. And she has impeccable comic timing. She makes lines that are not otherwise funny hilarious! I have no idea what A Catered Affair is about, but I'm excited to learn more about it and see it staged.

I don't think that's entirely rIdiculous. Later on, that is. I could also see Julia Murney playing Vivienne, but that's just me.

That's what I thought at first, but then when you really think about it, so does Kate Shindle (in this role)
Dequinna is leaving in a matter of weeks
and Leslie is also leaving
poor annaleigh
I know that asmeret (ensemble member of Spamalot, Wicked & In The Heights)
will be replacing dequinna
no word on Leslie though..I'd love to see Lindsey Nicole chambers as serena, she's so feirce!

Sorry, I should reclarify that. Not "old", just "older".
In San Fran the song they used was "Love And War" (instead of "Positive"). Leslie had a fierce high A (or A flat) on "pull her hair and call her WHOOOOORE". She could belt the Remix.
That said I'm happy for her moving forward in her career.
