I believe Lillias had a prescheduled absense for today. Her final curtain is up on YouTube as well as her final Flowers.

just looked at the show's website. Does anyone know when did Sayo Oni leave the show. I was hoping to catch him playing Orpheus again.

I believe he has taken a short hiatus due to school. Alyssa Shorte has also left the show.

A few hours ago he was still on it. So they updated it just now. I saw him as my first Orpheus and he blew me away. Voice like butter.

I believe this is why Chibeuze came back

YES! He's just so good. I hope he will return to the show soon.
Very easy to find clips of Yesterday's performance... recorded by employees of Hadestown. I've seen clips posted by crew members, ushers, Solea Pfeiffer, and even Rachel Chavkin!

I wonder if Sayo Oni will be taking on the Orpheus role soon! I actually think he's done with school - he posted graduation photos on his instagram on May 19. And then on May 25, he made a post about stepping into the role of Worker 3 and being excited to perform the show 8 times a week. Playbill also has him (re) arriving to the production on May 23, but nothing about a departure date (although I'm not sure how up to date those things are kept!)

It would be very exciting if Sayo Oni takes over the Orpheus role, or maybe as an alternate with a scheduled weekly performance : )
Hope he returns to the show. He's the best Orpheus I have seen (so far)
Anyone seeing Jewelle and Tom's final show today?
