Yes, but there is a difference between understudies and a stand by. Always has been.

If there is a standby (there isn’t always), they automatically go on first. U/S are next after that if the S/B cannot go on or the production doesn’t have S/B.

heard he's out this and next week
Posted: 9/24/19 at 10:36pm
His understudy posted that he would be performing in Santino's role through Monday, September 30th. I don't know if the person above me has information that I don't (it would certainly make sense and be understandable for him to take two weeks), but as far as I'm able to find from any reputable sources, he seems expected to return Tuesday, October 1st.

I'd like to see Jeff in the role so am going to enter lottery for the rest of the week. Congrats to Santino and Jessica!

Regardless, I’ve seen my share of understudies, swings, and standbys over the years and have never been disappointed. "
I guess you didn't see Mitzie Welch when she went on for Carol Burnett on FADE OUT/FADE IN. Ugh!

Not the understudy, the standby. The link is in the second post in the thread. (And he's the one who went on when Fontana missed a show in June, so he has some stage time in the role under his belt.)

Whoops, yeah that's what I meant to type actually. The link to his standby's Instagram is the post I was referring to actually.

He was back yesterday night, so I'd assume, barring any illness or personal issue, that he'll be there Friday night.
