this could sound mean...but that was a dumb question. why would she go down a part after playing it for a year.
Randal Keith became Colm Wilkinson's standby when the Les Miz tour went to Shanghai.
Matt Caplan became Joey Fatone's standby when Joey took over as Mark on Broadway.

Posted: 10/5/06 at 1:42pmI agree with you atlsuperstar, I just cant see teenage girls swarming over Ana like they did to Eden, Shoshana, and the goddess of gasping Idina!

Young men swarm over Ana. Trust me on that one!

Posted: 10/5/06 at 10:13pmMight be nice actually...having two girls as the lead...never having to worry if your going to get an understudy for elphaba...it would be either Eden or Anna. Believe me though I am SO GLAD that Eden is doing LA
