LizzieCurry, what do you mean by "transposed lyrics"? Do you mean that some moments of songs were transposed for Duda? I always wondered if understudies/standbys had the songs in different keys based on their vocal ranges, or if they sang in the same key as the lead actor. I know that when a new actor comes into the role, it's not uncommon for songs to be transposed (a la Taye Diggs in Wicked). but I wasn't sure if they did this for understudies and standbys.

No, I mean he mixed them up. I think he sang "every dinner needs a sidekick," or something like that.

He sang that EXACT same lyric back in June! Funny how some things just don't change =)
