From Andrew Kober's twitter:
Live theatre. Will out, Steel (on for Berger) twists his ankle during "Hair." Bryce does Act 2 as Berger (first time ever), Jay on as Woof.
Wow. Yet another injury. Was anyone there?
#2503Hair thread.
Posted: 1/7/10 at 11:39pmyikes!! and I think Steel is currently the only cover for Berger. If Will's supposed to be out again tomorrow, who'll cover Berger??

it must be fairly new for Bryce to be covering Berger. The last time I saw the show(Sept. 26), Steel was listed as the only cover for Berger. I figured they'd add another cover in time but never thought it would be Bryce. Kudos!!
Has their been any other additions to the understudy list??
and has Michael James Scott gone on for Margaret Mead at all?? Has Andrew ever missed a show??

Posted: 1/8/10 at 1:04amI don't think Andrew missed any shows yet. However, he does have a vacation coming up.

From the thread specifically discussing this: Bryce was put on as cover a bit ago: but has only had ONE rehearsal for Berger.
I don't know how he OR Jay did: but it sounded like Bryce didn't have the "Berger Costume" on...which sounded odd.

Just came across this video, and it pretty much made my day. Billy Elliot does Hair:

Posted: 1/12/10 at 11:58pmJust a quick question. I walked by the theater today and saw that Krystal Joy Brown was on as Dionne. Was this her first time performing the role??

Posted: 1/13/10 at 3:03pmConsidering the cast and production, I think it's safe to say that this is the best show Broadway right now!

im trying the lotto tomorrow... (8 o'clock show)
what are the chances?
i've never done a lotto before
#2517Hair thread.
Posted: 1/14/10 at 11:20am@CS You could probably get there about 30 minutes early and get standing room easily. The show needs to be close to selling out for the box office to sell them to you. I know last Saturday they weren't selling any of the standing room until after lotto was over.
#2518Hair thread.
Posted: 1/14/10 at 3:22pmLotto is not easy. I tried it a couple of months ago on a Sunday and there were well over 100 people...help me out if I am wrong but I believe they called 13 or 14 names - seats are in the boxes to the left and right of the stage. I did win and was lucky to get a seat on the end so I had no real obstruction.

I have yet another lotto question. I am planning on seeing Hair the first week of February (probably a Wednesday night if that makes a difference)and was wondering what the likelihood of getting tickets? IS it worth getting tickets now? Also, what are the alternatives for people who don't win the lottery? Are there any discounted tickets or SRO? There will be two of us so that doubles our chances. I have only done the lotto twice for two different shows(lost once and won once...those are pretty good odds :). Does anyone have any suggestions to what time to get to the bo? I think it's two hour prior but I'm not sure.
I'm sorry if this has been mentioned before but there are a lot of pages for this thread and I didn't read every single one of them.
Thank you in advance for your help!

I saw the show 2 weeks ago on a Sunday and got standing room. I got the last one right after lotto(there was about 200 people). There was about 6 people standing there when I walked by at 11:30am(it was also about 6 degrees out).
I saw Krystal as Dionne that day also.
Caissie has a vacation coming up this coming week.

Theo Stockman's last day is this Saturday (1/16).
I really like Theo. He was one of the tribe members that really stood out to me.

Posted: 1/14/10 at 9:06pmARe they starting AI rehearsals already? Seems a bit early. A shame I did't get to see him in Hair again. I, too, really enjoyed his performance.

Posted: 1/14/10 at 10:19pmDid anyone get to see Nicole as Dionne last night? I was at the matinee and she went on for act 2. I would love to get to see her do the whole show.

is Nicole now the third cover for Dionne?? I'm guessing Krystal is the first, then Chasten Harmon is second. I'm assuming Sasha Allen is on vacation this week. She was out Tuesday & tonight as well.
Tonight's u/s were:
Dionne - Krystal Joy Brown
Crissy - Briana Carlson-Goodman
Abe Linclon - Maya Sharpe
Tribe - Matt, Hannah, Antwayn, Ryan, Chasten
