Didn't Ricky say he was having so much fun that he wanted to renew his contract? He couldn't get any further from Broadway with his new gig. Elena-back to BA? Michael to Siberia?

You can't bring up a rumor and then sit back and watch it fizzle...come back and clarify! Inquiring minds want to know! :)
Who's rumored to be the replacements?
I don't WANT to live in what they call "a certain way." In the first place I'd be no good at it and besides that I don't want to be identified with any one class of people. I want to live every whichway, among all kinds---and know them---and understand them---and love them---THAT's what I want! - Philip Barry (Holiday)
Gabrielle is a wonderful actress. She was my favorite Nina in In the Heights, and she was an understudy. Being cast in Evita is perfect for her, and I wouldn't be surprised if she was an understudy for the Mistress or even Eva. I hate myself for moving farther from the city if that's the case.
I'm surprised that there is a feeling of excitement for Ruiz's casting. I saw her in HEIGHTS and in a cabaret setting and in both places, she seemed stilted and a little uncomfortable in her own body. I felt like she was pushing vocally on a lot of her top notes, though I thought she had some beautiful lines as a dancer.
To each their own, I'm sure she will be more than capable in this track.
Ruiz makes a great Diana in A Chorus Line as well. Is Sydney Morton going to Motown? I believe Sasha Hutchings who replaced her in Memphis is also in it.
