SOME LIKE IT HOT On Broadway - Reviews & News Thread — Page 38

Did anyone see Casey? Love stories like this. 

I went to the matinee yesterday, Casey was on of course as he and all the swings are all weekend. I went back specifically just to see him, and it was a real treat. There were a number of people in the orchestra who seem to know what was going on, the mezz and balcony not so much. Casey got a nice reception on his first entrance as Spats, and played the role just fine. It was just nice to see him in the show, I only flagged one slight line stumble but he was otherwise flawless. The highlight for me was watching him dance and tap the final chase sequence, he was eating that choreography alive, and seemed to be having a really great time doing it, especially the laundry bin moment.  Also spats final line... 

I do wonder if they will hire more swings, because this can't be a long term solution if multiple principal cast members are out again. Anyone have thoughts on that?

Was Borle back last night? Odd for Nicholaw to still be going on.

This show needs to hire a few more swings ASAP .

Borle was out last night and also out at today's matinee. Quite a few people are posting & complaining about it on Reddit. I don't know if Adam Heller is back but given Nicholaw is still going on, I would assume Heller is also still out as well. 

Adrianna Hicks did a live on Sunday and she mentioned the understudy for Heller's Mulligan was doing a split track. It sounds like without Nicholaw, they just can't do the show. 

Yeah they sure need to add more swings. 

 

Adrianna is singing the national anthem this afternoon at Yankee Stadium, on Opening Day.

And she sounded fabulous. Beautiful rendition.

Heller was on last night and Casey Garvin was on for Spats. 

 

He is still out. Box office says they don't know when he will be back. 

ACL2006 said: "It's odd that nobody is disclosing why Borle is out. Hasn't he been out since last Thursday?"

Perhaps because it’s personal?

DramaTeach said: "Matthew Lopez, who co-wrote the book, posted that he was going on for Borle for one night only. I wonder how he was."

it was an April Fool's joke. KJ Hippensteel was on for both shows yesterday.

Not a drill: Casey Garvin going on for Joe/Josephine in both shows today, per his Instagram story!! (He also noted “*subject to change at any time” lol)

Damn. Seeing this tonight. Hopefully Casey is better in this than when he went on as Stuart in Doubtfire.
