Wills takes over Christine in Phantom 12/12

Jennifer Hope Wills will take on the role of Christine full time beginning Dec. 12. Julie Hanson will return as the alternate Christine, playing Monday nights (and another, unannounced day.) Also returned is Anne Runolfsson as Carlotta (she returned in mid-November.)

Interesting news. I'm seeing TPOTO in the summer, so I'm looking forward to catching Jennifer Hope Wills as Ms. Daae. I've never seen her perform before, but I've heard she's pretty good, so I'm looking forward to it. And hopefully Howard McGillin will still be playing Erik at that time.

My dad is taking his business partner to this show on Tuesday, so they can see Jennifer's first performance!
How cool :)

I've been wanting to see Jennifer in the role since April, now my cances of being able to have increased! Good for her, she really deserves it.

How to properly use its/it's: Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...

She's amazing and the sweetest person ever! I love her!

...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

I bought my mom tickets to see Phantom on January 24th, a Wednesday matinee. Does anyone know which Christine we will be seeing?

craftymarley... I believe Jennifer will be performing the matinees. You can always keep checking her calendar, as it is updated a lot:

It doesnt say anything about January 24th yet, but if you keep checking, it will be updated.

Oh, this makes me so happy. As has already been said, she is an amazing person, truly grateful for her success (go to her website!), and of course, has a lovely voice. Can't wait until I go home and finally get to see her!

Arghh! Grammar pet peeve #1: your vs you're. "Your" is a possessive pronoun. "You're" is the contraction of "you are." <<

Nowhere in the musical is the Phantom referred to as Erik.

Let's not mix the novel and the musical.

This was bound to happen! She is just too good to be an alternate. I can't wait to see her.

Wonderful! I saw her as Christine when I went to the show with my school, and she was phenominal. I'm glad to hear that she'll be taking over now. Congrats to her!
