According to Shoshana Bean's fansite journal, Saycon will be on for both shows.

Did anyone happen to be at the 2pm matinee?

This is exciting. I am a fan of hers from Aida. I'd be interested in seeing how she does.

I recond it'd still be on or just be ending now wouldn't it? Although I admit I am curious as to what people thought of her

The 2pm matinee probably won't be over for another 20-40 minutes.

MEF I was just going to say that. The show is 2h45 mins., so another 20 + time to get home.

edit: She will be out both shows, according to her journal.

I'm sure that as soon as the first person that saw it gets home they will post a review.

Plus, other things factor in. Did the show start on time? Did the intermission run a little long?

Oh, I love her. She's my favorite Aida, of the ones I saw. If I didn't have somewhere I had to be tonight, I'd try the lotto.

Break a leg, Saycon!!

Trouble? I don't think having understudies/standbys go on is trouble.
