Does anyone know what's happened? Instagram rumours are saying she's broken her ankle but no confirmation yet.
The poor girl probably quit. She was misscast in the role and she is far too talented for the nothing part that she was given.

"Far too talented."
Lol.
It's true. The part was underwritten and didn't meet the quality of Sierra's talent.

Quite sad really. Although I do think that if it wasn't done by ALW there's no way she would have been casted. Well, hopefully she isn't injured. It's great that Mamie Parras has been brought into the role
I think Sierra should just stay away from ALW stuff for a while; I want to see what she's capable of outside of his work. (I personally don't like her Christine very much.)
It's a shame that the whole Rebecca thing fell through; that would've been the perfect vehicle for her to branch out and try something different. (I'd actually love to see her take on the title role in Elisabeth das Musical if it ever makes it to the English-speaking world; I have a feeling it could give her the opportunity to showcase her real talent.)
Hmm

You all really think Sierra quit/got fired? Seriously?

I think she's very bland as an actress but has a beautiful voice. I'm sure we will find out soon if she is indeed out of the show

Nah, I don't think that.

"In this show, I actually thought her acting was quite good... but the music didn't fit her voice and it was her weaker element here..JMO.
If she's out of the show, I think it's incredibly irresponsible for the producers to keep it going with her advertised in the role.

With all of this drama, do you think they'll change the opening night?

You take the words right out of my mouth.
yes she should stay away from ALW for a while, but on the other hand, there are not many roles for a voice like hers. One perfect role that comes to mind is indeed "Elisabeth".

I have no idea whether she's been permanently replaced, but I do think she was miscast. She seems like a lovely girl, but IMO she has a beautiful voice but is uninteresting onstage.
What if they are just rehearsing her to do her role the way Mamie does it?

Yeah.
I'm sure that's it.
Her great acting technique and voice that rival Meryl Streep and Barbra Streisand's are below this show.
(insert eye roll here)
My hope is that she woke up from whatever delusional dream she's been in and left the business. Dull as dishwater. I have it on good authority that there's an opening for a manager at a Baskin-Robbins in Boise, Idaho. I hope she takes it and serves double scoops of pistachio almond fudge to her heart's content and to the delight of the customers of Boise.

Right. Because scores of theater-goers are out there purchasing tickets to "that new Sierra Boggess musical."
Oh dear, I hope she isn't permentaly out of the show. I was hoping to see her in it.
And she's still on the show site, so there's no truth for now.
EDIT: Yeah, it sounds like she's sick/injured

I hope that these are just rumors flying and all this drama is not actually going on. That said, I would like to see her in a part that's really right for her. I don't think it was Ariel and it doesn't sound like it's this part in School of Rock either.

No. I paid good money to see THE LITTLE MERMAID (twice), GUYS & DOLLS in concert at Carnegie Hall, PHANTOM, MASTER CLASS, and IT SHOULDA BEEN YOU. Lackluster from beginning to end in every single piece, Pootie. So just save your snark and tired lines for someone else. Puh-lease.
