He is performing a concert in California with Michael Feinstein on Jan 15th. Will he be back the next morning to do 2 shows??!! Or is he missing that day?

I would guess not...but it certainly IS possible. He could already have arranged to take the entire weekend off. Christiane Noll is missing Ragtime's final weekend because of an already arranged absence. Wouldn't suprise me if he were scheduled out the weekend.

Have you checked with Bway Understudies?

Are you seeing the show on Jan 16th?

If you already have tickets, you'll have to wait and see. If you don't, I'd say don't risk it if you're heart set on seeing him.

If you're just asking to ask, and don't intend to see the show - well then .. okay.

I'm seeing the show on Jan 8th....I was just curious because that's closing weekend and he will be in California on Friday the 15th.

This is the only Finian's related bit at BU:

Friday, January 8th – Sunday, January 10th: Grasan Kingsberry will be on as Sunny in FINIAN'S RAINBOW.

I'm going on the 15th.

So you'll be missing Cheyenne for sure and I will be missing the guy that plays Sunny.

It appears that way. But if I'm missing Cheyenne I want Brian Sears. Anyone know how far down on the Woody understudy list he is?

I'm seeing Cheyenne in Palm Desert on the 15th, so I'm happy.

When Cheyenne was out before, Taylor Frey went on.

I'm pretty sure what will happen is: An understudy will go on the 15th (possibly the 16th matinee), then Cheyenne will return for (possibly the evening of the 16th) but for certain the final performance.

Edit: The Woody understudy breakdown per the Playbill is Taylor Frey, Brian Sears.

^That's probably alphabetical, and may or may not indicate the pecking order.

Per Broadway Understudies:

Taylor Frey will be on as Woody in FINIAN'S RAINBOW on Friday, January 15th.

Brian Sears will be on as Woody in FINIAN'S RAINBOW on Saturday, January 16th for the matinee.
