Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:03pmFor some reason March sticks out in my brain. But I could be totally pulling that out of my ass.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:04pmI was thinking May, but I might just think that because she started in May. Are her and Ben Vereen leaving at the same time?

Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:06pmProbably not because Ben Vereen had the option of leaving today I think. He just renewed his contract. I'm now thinking Megan may be leaving May 28 becasue thats the weekend JLT left.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:08pmMegan signed a one year contract so she's there until at least late May. She could always extend.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:12pmTechnically, it's May 28, 2006. But who knows, if she's nominated for Best Replacement Tony she might extend.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 8:59pmShe DOES deserve to win best replacement -- and I have a feeling she'll extend. She just seems right in Wicked for a while, you know what I mean?

Can Eden get nominated?
Everyone seems to be really excited about Eden. I can't wait to hear how she does. I heard nothing but INCREDIBLE things about her in SF when she did the tour.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 10:20pmActually there's no nominations, there may not even be a winner. And of course Eden is can get nominated.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 10:26pmI meant like...is there a deadline for when the person had to begin their run in the show? For instance, for some movie award show...don't know which one it is...my theatre arts teacher told us the movie has to have its premeire before January 1st of the year of the awards.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 10:33pmThe cut-off dates for the Tony's are May 10 and for the Replacement Tony, I believe you have to be in the show for 6 months.

Posted: 1/8/06 at 10:35pmThere are stipulations which I'm sure you could find on the Tony website...but I think a replacement has to be with the show for at least 6 months.

SO will Eden be eligable since she won't have been in it for 6 months by tony time, but she will be contrected for over 6 months? I'd rather Megan win anyway.

No, but if she stays in until Oct. 10 she will be eligible for the 2007 Tony's.
EDIT: Actually,now that I think about it, I don't know if she would have to stay until Oct. 10 or July 8...it depends on if months that did not add up to 6 the year before rollover.

I know this is horribly premature, but does anyone know if Eden's contracted for a year, or only 6/9 months? Because I'd dearly like to see her as Elphaba again and if she's in it for at least a year, then I could probably save my pennies without too much fuss to get back there 
Which would be the craziest thing I could ever do, but I'm verrry tempted.

Posted: 1/30/06 at 6:33amI hope she stays because I plan on having another trip to New York and I would LOVE to see her in Wicked again...

Posted: 1/30/06 at 10:18amOMG you scared me! I saw the title and thought that she was leaving already! I don't know when her contract expires but I sure do hope she stays awhile. She is really amazing.
"I wrote a book: "How to Be Popular". Now I've put together a top ten list of how to help you:
-Elphie, everyday... shower. I mean, who knows? Maybe some of that green is gonna come off!
-Deodorant Elphie. No body likes a stinky witch!
-I think we've covered the hair, we'll get to that.
-Clean underclothes. That's all I'm gonna say.
-Look at your posture. That's no way to be popular!
-Bed made, room straightened. We've done that.
-Colors blended. Oookay.
-But the most important thing to have, to make yourself popular, is to keep your beautiful smile."

Eden is not staying a full year. She is only staying the length of her first contract. When I spoke to her, she didn't know an exact date, but she said she will be leaving in October.
