That said, I've been 3 times and the only time a principle was out was the first time in previews when Barrett had the flu and Tee went on.

They will never say when they’re out. They may give hints on social media and other cast members may hint that they’re going on vacation, but if you call the box office they won’t tell you who’s in and out that day. Do you think ticket sales would drop if someone knew who they wanted to see wasn’t there? Or people would be severely disappointed and tweet them or something like that saying how disappointed they were that they didn’t get to see them? Happens all the time. BUT they have incredible understudies. You could witness a star in the making. So don’t be disappointed :)
You really do never know...

Tee has been involved with the show since 2013. It's definitely impressive she went on for a role she wasn't meant to, there's no doubt she was familiar with it prior to that day.

I’m aware of that, thanks. But I think I remember reading that she hadn’t actually looked at the part in a while and hadn’t had a put in for the role on Broadway yet since it was so early in the run.

It's to signify a light-hearted comment, which judging by your response is something you're unable to understand.
You know, when someone takes the time to politely answer a question you ask, the best practice is to just say thank you and not go out of your way to insult them.
With your snarky comment I'll refrain from answering your follow-up questions. Good day.

Tee debuted as Janis on 3/19 (the "infamous night" ) and then went on as Janis again the night after (3/20). MyLife is saying they attended the performance on 3/20.

Thanks, Alex, for explaining.

Kate and Erika both posted today about extending their time on the show.
#64Mean Girls Cast Replacements
Posted: 2/22/19 at 5:09pmIf Barrett announces she’s leaving, I would love to see Mary Kate Morrissey take over for her. I read that on another thread somewhere and I can’t get that casting out of my head.

Barrett Extended, after a pay bump.
Taylor wasn't going to but Lorne called her up and said "what is it going to take" and money talks. So she signed.

Erika - Confirmed Staying
Taylor - Rumored Staying
Ashley - Confirmed Leaving on March 10th, replaced by Krystina Alabado
Kate - Confirmed Staying
Barrett - Rumored Staying
Grey - Unknown ?

I’ve heard from a very reputable source that Taylor’s replacement has already been casted and she will not be extending.

Can you provide us with any dates? Announcement/departure dates?
#69Mean Girls Cast Replacements

unless something changed recently. but I was told by a friend in the cast that everyone was offered a second year contract a few weeks back. only Ashley declined. Barrett was on the fence, but signed after the raise. and Taylor only signed after Lorne called her up. I was with them at kiss me Kate last week and we talked about Ashley's replacement, but they didn't mention anything about Taylor. ::shrug:: If she is leaving, that sucks, cause she is amazing in that role.

I don’t know any dates. I presume it will be announced soon. The replacement will be making their Broadway debut.

Posted: 2/22/19 at 9:57pmLast time I checked, Taylor was NOT extending.

Penny Fuller will be replacing Taylor as Regina, 2 weeks after Anastasia closes. She snapchatted about it yesterday.

Taylor liked a tweet where someone hoped she would be staying until June. That's Taylor's sort of code for letting people know when she will or will not be on or off. So now I don't know what to believe. Did she renew? Or is she on her way out?
