Keri is replacing Lencia and is leaving the standby role in a few weeks. Talia will be back to standby (and has scheduled shows the weekend of 2/7) while they rehearse the brand new standby.
Glinda is new to the show."
Christy Altomare?"
They have a middle name Rene only rule now, so Sherie Rene Scott is coming in as Glinda

Professional theatre debut? Or have they done regional/touring work?

I believe the new Glinda is Emma Flynn who did Clueless in the West End.

She was sensational in that-a total, can't take your eyes off her, star. I literally left the show thinking to myself, "I hope her next job is Glinda on Broadway".
