Hello all!, Can anyone tell me who will be stepping in for Elphaba when Christine Dwyer leaves? And when that might be?

I'd imagine Christine and Jenni are contracted through early 2015 (as they began early 2014). I'm hoping Alison Luff and/or Jennifer Gambatese join the Broadway company but I doubt it, as Alison Luff recently joined Matilda. No clue what Jenn is up to.

Lilli Cooper is joining the cast as the new stand by, replacing Anne Brummel, so she's a possibility when 2015 roles around.

Jenn Gambatese was in the Lyric Opera of Chicago's version of The Sound of Music as Maria last spring. She was absolutely delightful in the role.

The current leads are signed on until November. They may be offered extensions, though.

I saw Jenn as Glinda in Costa Mesa last year. Great performer, not the best fit for Glinda in my role.
