Well, you have a planned full cast. LB is a show that often has more than a few understudies at a performance.
Today had 6 understudies (7 if you count Beth Curry's temporary replacement). It was only planned for Andy Karl and Orfeh to be out.

While that site is very good, it doesn't list every understudy for every date. They can only list what they're told. People can call out at the last minute, or any number of reasons why they wouldn't be listed on the site.
The website doesn't say that Tony Yazbeck was going to be out of Gypsy last Saturday afternoon.
^^ Just proved my point.

BroadwayUnderstudies.com is not associated directly with any of the productions on Broadway, and therefore only gets information given to them specifically by the understudies. If you're interested in knowing when an understudy is going on, remind them about BU.com, and hopefully they'll let the website know.
Though, if I was an understudy, I wouldn't tell BU.com if I knew it meant people like you would be avoiding the show when I was on. Embrace the understudies, guys.
For the Sunday matinee at LB:
Bryce Ryness as Emmett
Amber Efef as Paulette
Jason Gillman as Dewey and Kyle
Dani Spieler as Store Manager and Judge
Rod Harrelson as Grandmaster Chad
Rusty Mowrey as Aaron
and (until Beth Curry gets back)
Casey Leigh Thompson as the Stenographer.
^So, at the matinee it was really only two principal actors, one of whom was on vacation. The others were part of the domino effect.
Saturday evening, however, Laura Bell Bundy was also out, with Becky Gulsvig filling in.
