I'm not sure, but I'm seeing the show on July 3rd and I really hope Seth Stewart will be on as Usnavi.

If Jon Rua ever goes on as Usnavi, then Noah Rivera will probably back in Sonny's track.
If Jon doesn't go on tho, then its probably going to be Seth and Noah alternating somehow.

Michael Balderrama is also an Usnavi understudy.

Has anyone seen any of the current Usnavi understudies in the role? If so, how are they?

Has Seth gone on yet as Usnavi?

I don't think he has on Broadway, because I'm pretty sure Corbin hasn't been out yet. I'm not sure about the tour, though.

I have seen Noah Rivera as Sonny in In the Heights, Pinocchio in Shrek and Boq in Wicked and he was incredible every time. I can't wait to see him as Usnavi (June 28/29) He never dissappoints.

Seth is going on for the majority of the time. A friend of mine danced with him before he was in In The Heights and she told me he said he would be on.

Michael Balderamma was on today and he was awesome! The cast was on FIRE even with a lot of the main characters having understudies.

Michael Balderamma was on as Usnavi.
Gabrielle Ruiz was on as Carla.
Doreen Montalvo as Abuela Claudia.
Courtney Reed as Vanessa.

^ I saw a clip of Balderamma performing "Carnaval del Barrio" and he was actually shouting instead of rapping. Did he do that at your performance?

Sorry to ask such a small-detail related question, but do u know who were in Ruiz and Montalvo's tracks?

Agreed on Michael Balderrama's performance. I saw him tonight and he was excellent, as was the show. I loved it.

I've seen this (not all at the same time, though) and it's amazing.

Just saw Noah Rivera as Usnavi in In the Heights. Absolutely incredible. Don't miss him, he is on again Tuesday 6/29. Audience was on their feet. really, really good.

So is it safe the say the role is being rotated between Michael, Noah, and Seth? I'd love to see Noah's take, he's great. Also, I didn't know Michael had returned to the cast.

Michael will be on at the July 3 matinee.
