I can’t just walk up to the box office a couple hours prior and see if any absences from the main cast are posted before the matinee performance.
My friend I am taking has Parkinson’s and has recently been through a course of chemotherapy. He can get out, but it takes a little effort.

I really wish there were a way to find out if there are understudies on in real time, with the obvious exception of last minute announcements.
A friend of mine who is in another show suggested I call the box office to find out. I’m almost offended that she said that to me. As far as I know, there is no such thing as a listed number for a Broadway box office, and surely she knows that, too."
If you call Telecharge that morning at 212 239-6210, and explain the situation, they’ll probably call the box office for you."
The box office generally won't know anything until the stage manager posts the cast board an hour or so before the performance. If the Star is out and it's a planned absence, they might know."
Thank you!
