As far as I know, Megan isn't leaving for a while. Not that I'm speaking for her, but yeah.

If anything, she'll leave on the last Sunday in May, which would be the 28th.

Who are you asking if they're joking? Are you suggesting that somebody is joking about Megan leaving Wicked? Glinda has been played by well over 10 women now...

Eden signed a nine month contract, so sometime in October. Not August.

Thank God, because I'm seeing Wicked a third time sometime before the school year ends.

Eden told me in an email that she leaves in early August. Here is the exact email.

"Hi Nick.

Thanks so much for your wonderful message! No, I will not be doing "Evita" in London, contrary to what rumors may say. I am glad you came straight to the source and asked me about it!

I am very happy to hear that you'll be coming up here to see the show in July! Yes, I will still be playing the green girl. I'm here through early August, so no worries on that front!

Well, I must go. All the best!

Stay WICKED!

Eden"

Eden herself has told several people October. Who knows then?

Megan's contract is up on May 28th, but there is always the chance she might extend. I'm not sure if she even knows yet

A friend of mine talked to Megan at the stage door a week ago. She said that she was (as of this moment) leaving May 28th, but there was a chance she might extend. If that extention happened, it would be two months, and put here in the show through the beginning of August.

As you said, she is not completely sure yet what is going on, but she did say the extention was unlikely.
