This review/column/thing is cute, but I don't know if the guy realized if he had driven to see the show in Cleveland he'd see pretty much the same cast anyway.
(Although yes, I realize he went to Toronto because he likes Toronto.)

#2652New Alternate Frankie in Vegas
Posted: 10/19/08 at 2:55am
There's a new Frankie alternate in Vegas, David Demato.
What happened to Travis? With his time in the Broadway cast, he's probably been with the show for about a year but didn't he just become the Vegas alternte about a month ago?

Ok, I was wrong. They must have been in the middle of updating the Vegas cast list on the site when I last checked it because now Travis is back on as the alternate. David Demato is the new swing who is replacing Graham.

Apparently the Sherry cast was on TV this morning, but there's no clip on the website: http://www.citytv.com/toronto/tvshows_breakfasttelevision.aspx
Also, Jeff Madden can't talk about being Frankie yet, even though it was in the Toronto Star. http://jeffmadden.blogspot.com/2008/10/oops.html

Posted: 10/31/08 at 11:00pm^^That's hilarious about Jeff. He sent out a mass email to his friends more than two weeks ago! Oops, indeed.

His latest blog sounds like Taylor is suggesting he's the next member of the touring company to transfer to Broadway.
And I'm hearing rumors that when Erik Bates returns to the tour, Deven May will be replacing him in Vegas

Since when is Courter an understudy for Bob Crewe?! I WOULD LOVE to see that...

I was thinking the same thing.
I have nothing else to add to this thread other than to say I wish certain Sherry tour performers had websites and/or updated said websites more often, because I'd like to confirm a couple rumors I heard.
Good ones. Gotta catch 'em all.

Strange... hopefully the post shows up this second time around!
Just got an e-mail from the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust announcing the casting of "Jersey Boy" for the national tour's Pittsburgh stop Jan. 7-Feb 1 at the Benedum Center:
The cast of "Jersey Boys" will be lead by Erik Bates (Tommy DeVito), Joseph Leo Bwarie (Frankie Valli), Josh Franklin (Bob Gaudio) and Steve Gouveia (Nick Massi) as The Four Seasons, with Jonathan Hadley and Joseph Siravo. The ensemble includes Matt Bailey, Sarah Darling, Christopher DeAngelis, Graham Fenton, John Gardiner, Buck Hujabre, Leo Huppert, Michelle Knight, Renée Marino, Brandon Matthieus, Denise Payne, Nathan Scherich, Brian Silverman, Courter Simmons, Ryan Strand and Kara Tremel.

Is Josh going on as Bob tonight in Denver? I know he was already in rehearsals in Toronto, alongside the (mostly) Canadian cast, and I was told that the final show in Toronto (Dec 6) was also going to be Andrew's final show with the tour... but that was a month ago, and I haven't heard anything else since then.

Josh Franklin is probably starting performances at the start of the Denver run. Here's a little interview he did http://www.rockymountainnews.com/news/2008/dec/11/a-rise-to-fame-set-to-music/
As for Andrew, I heard he's going to be the next Bob Gaudio in the Broadway cast. Not sure when he's going to start but he's probably waiting for Sebastian to finish out his contract.
