Posted: 6/6/13 at 2:52pmI was just about to post this in the what's next for Stephanie J. Block thread. I'm glad that she will be doing another show and with Will as well.

Well, guess I have to make a weekend trip to NYC in the fall to see this.
Glad to see these two are continuously getting jobs, I enjoy them immensely.

Posted: 6/6/13 at 8:09pmThe musical was a piece of s@#t. Good luck to all in polishing the turd.

"The musical was a piece of s@#t. Good luck to all in polishing the turd."
According to this article the musical is going through MAJOR changes.
"the musical — which has undergone a major overhaul since its world premiere at California's La Jolla Playhouse in February 2011, retaining only three songs from the original version"

Posted: 6/7/13 at 6:52amIMHO, replacing Hunter Foster with Will Chase will be a major improvement in and of itself. To say Foster was not likable in the role as previously written would be a vast understatement. And yes, this was a s@#t-laden clusterf*** in La Jolla. Lemme just put it this way...the show started with Hunter Foster strumming an acoustic guitar singing a folk song about motivational speaking. Really gets you in the mood for a night of theatre. It would take some pretty powerful reviews to convince me to invest another 150 minutes of my life I won't get back on this show again.

I'm sad Will Chase is leaving the part, but I get to see him on television, which is much cheaper. Win.
Anytime I get to be in the same room as Will Swenson is also a win.
Double win.
I wonder if he will still be playing Dr.Frank-N-Furter in New Hope?

He's not doing both. His name is already off the BCP website. Because of the overlapping dates, there would be no way.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Posted: 9/3/13 at 3:59pmLove both of the Wills and, while I am sad to see Will Chase exit this production, I am perhaps more happy Will Swenson will be the replacement than I am sad at Chase’s exit. (And, happy for Will Chase on landing the role on “Nashville”!) Very excited to see this.

NOOOOOOOO! I was dying to see Will Chase again!
I am comforted by the fact that he'll be on Nashville. He better be singing though!

I'm totally bummed about him not doing Rocky Horror. Boo. But, Sunshine is only a couple subway stops away so it's a lot more convenient! Looking forward to both the Will's performances.
"On season two of Nashville, Chase will play Luke, a successful and charismatic country music star who may become romantically involved with Rayna (played by Connie Britton) on the hit series."
He will be indeed singing. YES.
