Didn't see Stephanie Mills but saw Maia Reficco and she was phenomenal. As was Jordan Fisher - his performance was absolutely incredible. I loved Phillip Boykin. Malcolm Armwood as Hermes is young but I loved him and felt I was in excellent hands the whole evening. The whole show is in great shape.
Cant wait to see it again, next week. Ha ent been since the reopening after covid.

Heard she had COVID which kept her out of rehearsals for a week. I just hope she's not struggling to learn the score.
Who here is seeing Mills’s first performance tonight?
I saw her about ten days ago. Other than messing up lyrics a few times, she was wonderful.

Timothy H. Lee joins the company as Worker 3/Orpheus u/s on August 27th. I assume Chibueze leaves the 25th. I saw his Orpheus on both tour and Broadway and he was fantastic- can’t wait to see what he does next!

Any rumors on who could be replacing Jordan Fisher as Orpheus, or do we think he could extend again?
Fisher, Reficco, and Boykin have all extended through January 12.
They really were terrific, when we saw it a few weeks ago.

I’m excited to see Boykin and Fisher in a couple weeks. The clips I’ve see of Reficco have been…fine. Hopefully in person she does well.
IMO, Fisher might have gotten a nom, had he originated. Head and shoulders above Reeve. (Not sure if I liked him better than Nick Barasch [original tour] but right up there with him!)
My companion actually like Boykin over Patrick Page, but I couldn't quite agree - but he was wonderful.
I had no expectation of Reficco (no idea of who she was) but I liked her very much. A bit younger in spirit, but still wordly, which made her more sympathetic, I think.
Enjoy!

STRONGLY disagree.
Caught this over the weekend and was shocked how much I loved this current cast. After seeing this twice with the OBC, I would dare to say I liked Lillias as much as De Shields and Jordan’s vocal performance was much MUCH stronger than Reeves, especially with all the falsetto head voice stuff.
How has Jordan’s attendance record been? Dying to see this again with him. This show is hitting harder than ever, especially after the election.

I saw the show three times after Jordan joined, but only got to see him in the third time. I know this does not necessarily mean his attendance is low but just want to share some data points

No word on the new Hermes though unless White has extended?
