Megan Osterhaus is Mary Poppins?#1

Posted: 6/5/07 at 3:18pm

I was searching to see if a Mary Poppins replacement thread was posted because I wanted to ask what the odds are of Christy Carlson Romano taking over along the way, but since all of my searches on this site end badly, i decided to google it. I ended up at IBDB's replacement section and saw that Megan Osterhaus was casted as an additional Mary Poppins. IBDB is usually reliable (slow, but reliable), but B'wayworld users are the real theatre experts so I thought I'd ask. When did this occur, why, and how many times a week?

Maybe she's the newest U/S like an additional U/S perhaps.


Or a standby.

It doesn't list standbys. Just U/S.

I think that she is eiather a understudy or standby. IBDB doesn't list standbys but if someone is a standby they will be credited on IBDB as an understudy regardless of the fact that that's not what they are.

I know Brown isn't leaving anytime soon. But, who would want to see Christie Carlson Romano in this role??? I think its a little too early in the shows run to go with disney stunt casting.

She is a new third understudy (Carbone and Walker still retain their positions).

IBDB is really foolish sometimes...that's just a huge mistake.

How to properly use its/it's: Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...
