Will's Mark was absolutely fantastic.

His Roger was good and he does one of the best "Will I?" solos I've ever heard, but he excelled at Mark.

ETA: I don't think he's too old looking for Roger. Spike his hair up a bit and he'll be fine.

I'll probably see it while I am in the city in January, but I have to hope and pray that I get an understudy for nearly every other cast member - especially RuprechtMark.:)

Edited to make a correction.

Yeah, there is. Normally, I am the first to yell "duplicate thread", but the previous one faded away and this is the first since it become official so I'll play along.

Cary is just gone. taking time off, finishing up the album for a Feb 2006 release and a music video.

Josh is Roger till Christmas Eve and then Will takes over. after Will's stint in the plaid a NEW (like never been on Broadway before New) Roger, Tim Hower will come in

Is that Tim HowAr as in husband of Ruthie Henshall, or Tim Hower, I don't know who he is?

Will's thirty-five -- same age as Adam Pascal. And, like Adam, he doesn't look it.

He does!

I didn't like him as much in The Full Monty - he played it to boyishly.

But he was great in Lennon!

I'm a fan!

I saw Rent yesterday. I was pretty damn impressed with Joshua Kobak as Roger. He plays a different Roger, much angrier. In "Another Day" he was rather violent towards (Mimi) played by Antonique Smith. He was fantastic. I did notice though, as they are watching the film during Finale B, Cary's picture is still in it as Roger. On the other hand, I really miss Karmine Aler's Mimi. Antonique was ok, but her voice was extremely irritating at times.

Ok, back to the topic. I look forward to seeing Will again.

Matt Caplan? Yes.

Who's playing Roger after Will's one month is up?

My friend who has seen the play numerous times before surprised the hell out of me. When it was over she whispered to me, "I really love Matt Caplan as Mark."

He was better yesterday afternoon compared to the other few times I have seen it this year.

I really wish he were staying for more than a month, because I don't know if I'll be able to go while he's there.

Em, Tim Howar (fresh blood) will be joining the cast from January 30th to July 29th. I guess now that means I'll have to go to see Will and then probably wait a little bit into Tim's run before I see him. Let him get settled.
I recognize the addiction to being alive.

Wow, I remember Will's last day in the show and he was packing and taking his stuff out from the Neder-I'm glad to hear he's going back.

When will Will originate another role? I hope Lennon hasn't cursed him... re: Will Chase in RENT for a month
