Wasn't Tracie Thoms the leading player in some of the early readings/workshops for this production? I wonder if she'll join the cast at some point?
I'm not sure how able a gymnast she is, but I think Shayna Steele could make a great Leading Player vocally. Krystal Joy Brown perhaps?

Posted: 9/7/14 at 1:04pmI know that KDM isn't going anywhere, but whenever I think of other people that could play Pippin Corey Cott always comes to mind.

Posted: 9/7/14 at 1:37pmhow do you know Uzo is in the mix? As for now a new LP has been determined based on a friend of mine who is close with the production has told me just not who.

Posted: 9/7/14 at 6:52pmInteresting that Uzo would be "in the mix" for a role that's already been cast. An announcement should be made soon about her.

Well, if Ariana is the LP, here is her singing "Simple Joys"

Posted: 9/7/14 at 8:44pmwhen Ciara & KDM entered the show, they said they were given 5 weeks of rehearsal. So whoever is replacing Ciara has likely been in rehearsals for a few weeks already.

Posted: 9/7/14 at 10:18pmThey also said that they were very lucky to get that much time. 5 weeks might not be customary for all replacements.

Posted: 9/8/14 at 2:23pmI'm getting very antsy waiting for the reveal of the new LP. Any day now...

I'm surprised Ciara wasn't in this for very long.
Added: Just read she's leaving to be in Hunchback at La Jolla.

Posted: 9/8/14 at 2:48pmIs Ciara Renee leaving for good, or is she taking a leave of absence and returning post-HUNCHBACK?

Posted: 9/8/14 at 3:08pmMaybe she will do Hunchback at Papermill, but from her tweets it sounds like she is leaving for good.

It seems that Erik Altemus is out as Lewis. There's a new Lewis in "Pippin." Is Erik joining the tour or is he out-out?

^ This is now the third post that has said Erik is leaving.
The tour started last week, so unless they went a few shows without a Lewis, that wouldn't make sense.
Also, the tour Lewis has been cast for a while, Callan Bergman.

Posted: 9/8/14 at 11:12pmYou guys are really wasting your time speculating. Just wait a few days. Everything is settled and you're all wrong.

Posted: 9/8/14 at 11:35pmCallan is alive and well with the tour. I don't believe he is going anywhere.

Posted: 9/9/14 at 12:44pmNo. The cast doesn't even know, because the Weisslers like wasting everyone's time and not giving anyone notice.
