So I heard that Matt S. will be replacing Kyle when he leaves, so who is going to replace Matt for Georg? Lucas maybe? Then who is going to replace Blake as Mortiz. I have heard Gerard but I would like to see someone else in the role, Morgan Karr or Chase Davidson. Any Ideas when Christy leaves really have no idea here.

Thoughts would be great!

..hhmm.. it IS possible for them to hire people who haven't done the show before. I know, it is a novel concept and incomprehensible to some that a show would do that when they have people there that the fans have already seen endless times..

From what I've seen...I don't like Matt Shingledeckers Melchior..Gerard is ok..but Blake is 100x better..and from what I've "heard" Morgan Karr is AMAZING as moritz!

Christy was the only one that had a full year on her contract...so I don't see her leaving any time too soon.

Shingledecker (so word has it) was promised the role when Kyle left...but I haven't heard anything.

The same rumor was true for Gerard....but I haven't heard anythinng.

I've heard conflicting reports about both Kyle and Bashoff's departure: Both at the end of Toronto; as well as only Kyle at that time with Bashoff staying longer.

I'd rather like to know if Bashoff will be in Boston....the only reason I really want to see it again.

I would love Blake to stay with the tour until I get a chance to see it

LOL. Broadwayguy2 wins.

But Shingledecker deserves it, if this is indeed true.

I don't understand why they couldn't all just commit for a year, then replace the entire cast if the tour is continuing into another set of tour dates for next season. Yes I know they're human beings, but it's kind of a let-down when you've been excited for a while to see a particular cast (who were announced and are advertised on the show's website), bought tickets, and then find out months later that some might leave before the tour stop you're going to.

I saw Chase Davidson a couple weeks ago as Moritz and he did a great job. I found Blake's performance more enjoyable, but if Chase would take over the role, I think a lot of people would be happy.
