Saw the show for the first time and loved it...will review tomorrow but Constantine was out and his u/s was on...although it wasn't either u/s listed in the playbill and there was no insert and they made an announcement at curtain. His u/s was amazing and I'm dying to know his name...Thanks!
I loved it, glad you loved it too.
Constantine announced a few days ago he was going to be out tonight and tomorrow. He is absolutely amazing, you should see it again with him in it. Who was in as Sherrie?
His name is Joey Taranto. He was initially a vacation swing a while back when Constantine was out for a week. Seems like they just bring him on when they feel they need him. I really hope he becomes a full fledged cast member soon.
I saw Geoff Packard and I wasn't impressed at all. How would you compare Geoff and Joey?

in my mind you really can't compare Geoff and Joey. I've seen Geoff several times and had the opportunity to see Joey when he was covering Con's vacation. He was amazing! out of all of the Drew u/s I've seen and including Geoff and Joey I've seen 4, Joey is the best vocally. The role of Drew is tough to sing, and I give Con a ton of credit for being able to sing it 8 shows a week. Joey does the role justice and is my favorite understudy.
Joey was on when I saw it in March and was outstanding!
I saw Jeremy something as Stacee Jaxx and he was quite good, did he ever play Drew?
I believe I heard somewhere Joey is taking over for Constantine when he leaves to do the tour.
Jeremy Woodard, and yes. He's played Drew on a very select few occasion.

awww, Jeremy was so cute as Drew.
Jeremy is just cute as a human being.
But particularly as Stacee.

^ true fact.
although i don't know that i would describe his Stacee as "cute", but i get where you are going.

Does Jeremy Woodard have the voice for Drew??
Also curious if anyone saw Katherine or Jennifer play Justice while Maisey was out?
I saw Katherine- she did a wonderful job. (big shoes to fill)
I thought she was a bit young to play the part- but she pulled it off.
>>I believe I heard somewhere Joey is taking over for Constantine when he leaves to do the tour.
I might have to see that.
Joey sings the score so effortlessly and is adorable as Drew.
