Posted: 3/9/06 at 4:53pmWell, they change casts because their contract is usually up and sometimes people don't want to do the role a really long time...

Posted: 3/9/06 at 5:17pmBecause Cameron Mackintosh gets his jollies by watching phans freak out over the career choices of complete strangers.

Posted: 3/9/06 at 5:31pmlol Lizzie! I'm actually sure that is a true fact. And of course the cast probably wants to do other things than sing Think of Me their whole lives.

Posted: 3/9/06 at 5:32pmmaybe because Sandra's been doing only 3 shows a week?

Yankeefan, is that true? Considering Sandra's been with the show for practically forever, what did she want to do, stay with it until it closes.
Is Howard McGillin leaving, too?

Posted: 3/9/06 at 6:06pmYes, he is.

Nothing is totally RUG-stamped-official, but supposedly Rebecca Pitcher and Michael Shawn Lewis.

SandraJoseph.com has Sandra's official last performance.
Howard ... may or may not be leaving. No one really knows, rumors rumors rumors get people in trouble.
Tim should be leaving by April.
Larry Morbitt (Piangi) leaving March 29th.

Posted: 3/10/06 at 7:25amPhantess - Do you know who will be taking over for Larry?
#23re: poto cast WHY WHY
Posted: 3/10/06 at 11:16amDoes anyone know if Howard does leave approximately when it will be?? I saw him the first time I saw it and I wanted to go see again soon with him... my dad actually is friends with someone who is related to him, I see if he can ask him if Howard's leaving

Fan boards quoting fan boards? Not always the best source of credible information. Where is an "official" source that Howard McGillian is leaving?
If he's doing a "6 mos. renewable with an opt out contract", he hasn't been on Broadway with this for 6 mos. yet. Just looking for some reliable information.
