Any link that backs up the claim that Blake is going to be Fyero.

Winston, shouldn't you be in school right now?

Anynway, try and keep up. Blake was telling people this last night at the stage door after the final performance of Legally Blonde.

First of all, MassofMen, if you're going to attack someone for a role, at least spell the role right. It's FIYERO.

Second of all, I run his official website and it is true. However, the press release probably won't come out until he officially signs his contract, which I believe is happening in the next few days.

He's slated to start in Minneapolis, although I think he may be doing the last few shows in Georgia. This could all change, but it seemed to be pretty set in stone.

adamgreer, you were in college once. You know that you don't have classes all day. There are times where you have free time between classes.

I wasn't at the Legally Blonde final show so I couldn't have heard that at the stage door.

^adamgreer wasn't at the SD either since he had to catch his bus home(I know this since I was with him). I was at the LB SD and Richard Blake said he was gonna be Fiyero on the 1st national tour.

It was mentioned in the thread about LB closing which is how people know.

Also, Richard Blake is only 33 and since Norbert (according to IBDB) is almost ten years older than him, that would mean that he was older than Richard when he was playing Fiyero...
