So since there are always a thousand threads with people asking "is so-and-so going to be on tomorrow?" I thought it might be a good idea to consolidate any relevant knowledge into one thread. I don't think this has been done before, but if it has, my apologies!
To get things started, there's an announcement that Alan Cumming will be out of CABARET November 12-14 available on the show's website. .
Idina Menzel is scheduled to be out of IF/THEN November 11-13.
Norm Lewis will be out of Phantom on November 15, December 11-13, December 30 matinee, and January 27-29.
Since Norm Lewis is appearing in SHOW BOAT at the NY Philharmonic next week, he'll be out of PHANTOM at least Wednesday-Saturday (November 5- in addition to those dates. Chris Fitzgerald will be out of CHICAGO, as well, the 5th-8th.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Does anyone know if Jessie Mueller has any more scheduled absences from Beautiful? I haven't gotten a chance to catch it yet, and she's my main draw.

Jessie Mueller is out today and tomorrow--not sure if she's out the whole week. Additionally, Jarrod Spector is out at least part (if not all) of this week for his wedding/honeymoon.

The November 7 performance is cancelled. The evening performance on November 12 is cancelled, as well, although there will be a matinee with Jackie Burns playing Elizabeth.

Trensch's schedule changed. He now does Wednesday evening and Sunday.
Jessie mueller is out I believe until Tuesday. Rebecca LaChance is on until then and she tweeted earlier today that she would also be on for Jessie on Sunday the 9th.
Does anyone know if there are any scheduled absences for Gentlemen's Guide this week, If/Then before it closes, or for Beautiful before Jessie Mueller leaves on Mar 6?
"What was the name of that cheese that I like?"
"you can't run away forever...but there's nothing wrong with getting a good head start"
"well I hope and I pray, that maybe someday, you'll walk in the room with my heart"
IF/THEN is usually pretty good about noting planned absences (Menzel) ahead of time on their performance list view. The notable dark period now is Jan27-Feb1, where it seems all performances then are canceled. IF/THEN on Ticketmaster
This is Bryce Pinkham's last week at Gentleman's Guide before he goes off to Heidi Chronicles, so he should be in. I think everyone else should be in as well.
Not sure about If/Then or Jessie Mueller. Also, is March 6th Mueller's last show, even though it's a Friday?
Anyone know if there arr any scheduled absences for the week of Feb 17 at Gentlemens guide? Already saw it once but im bringing a group to see it and i woild love for them to see jefferson mays. Thanks!
Just in case people are trying to catch Mueller before she leaves Beautiful, she was out last night. I don't know if that means she'll be fine the rest of the week, or if she is sick. She was the reason I went, but her understudy, Sara Sheperd, has a phenomenal voice. Sorry I will never see Jessie Mueller as Carole, but it was a great evening.
Jessie's out for the matinee today as well. I went last night and again today but left and got a tkts refund because I want to see Jessie. I have tickets for the tour back home in Chicago so I'll see the show then but really wanted to catch her in the role and there's way too many shows I want to see as well . I'm not sure if I should risk trying tonight again. I feel bad for the poor girl being sick but my last minute switch ups are going to kill me running around Manhattan.
She was out for the matinee this past Saturday but did go on Saturday night. Maybe she's trying to fight off an illness.
Though I know she has a good attendance record, I don't want to risk missing her again so I bought a ticket for her last show. Barring any trap door malfunctions during the melting scene it should be a safe bet that she goes on.
