Bee2 - Kyle Dean has been temporarily covering while Aaron is missing several shows a week to film Gossip Girl. Aaron's commitment to the tv show is up soon - next week, I believe. He will be playing Gabe full time and Kyle Dean will, I presume, return to Wicked. I don't know how long he is attached to Wicked, but from what I know, their ensemble contracts generally start at six months.

Glad you enjoyed the show!

"I was just listening to my cast album when I heard Alice sing something about the devil you know. Did anyone else's ears perk up at the Sideshow reference? I know it's a common phrase, but just like Stephanie's "no good deed goes unpunished" in 9 to 5, I had to laugh."

YES and YES! Don't know if either was intentional (kind of assumed Stephanie's was / Alice's wasn't), but loved both of those!

Anyone else going to the 'On Stage With Next to Normal' event tonight (Wed., Oct. 28 ) at 7 p.m. at the 92nd Street Y - Tribeca, 200 Hudson St.? Members of the cast and creative team will be there, and a new song suggested by Twitter users will be debuted. Tickets are $10 apiece, but I hear it's 99% soldout. I bought 3 tickets for friends, but they can't go; if you're interested in them, PM me ASAP. Thanks!

Me too!! And is the song going to ever make it into the show? With 37 songs, it seems crowded enough as it is.

I love the whole idea behind writing a new song from Twitter. I would have thought Broadway World TV would have produced something on it....

None of the understudies at 2nd Stage continued at Arena. All of the understudies from Arena moved to Broadway except Mary Mossberg. That doesn't answer your question though. I'm curious about it too.

When I ran into Mary at a NYMF event, she was talking with someone else about it and said something like it was too hard to just sit backstage all the time and not have anything to do. Which I guess kind of makes sense, especially if you like to actually DO something.

Having seen her in "Max Understood" and having heard from a friend who saw her in "Miss Saigon" out on Long Island this summer, I wish she had stayed on, though I can understand why being "just" an understudy (not looking down on understudies by any means, but if that's your only job in the show I can see how it would get old really quick if you like to do stuff) might not be what she wants to do. This way she's free to pursue other options.

Saw the show again last night for the 7th (!!) time. Got my ticket on TDF and since I was a single (none of my friends are as obsessed as I am), I was in Row B on the right side of the orchestra.

So much of the best action happens on that side, so it was almost like seeing a whole new show. Meghann Fahey was on as Natalie-I have to say that she is completely on point on all counts (acting, singing, having innate confidence). She got a much deserved huge ovation at the end of the show. I think she has a huge career ahead of her.

And once when Adam spit in her face while singing, she flinched for a second, smiled slightly at him...and carried on....

Adam spits a lot when he sings. He spit on me when I was front row.
Don't believe everything that you hear! Only the peeps involved know the truth!

From what I've heard from a friend (I have class on Tuesday nights, so I can't say for sure) Tuesday nights are pretty slow as a rule. Odds are it will still be on TKTS after the lottery (or they may even have seats in all price levels...they did have that one time when I tried) so you could run over there and grab a ticket then.
