When does Eva's alternate go on in Miss Saigon? I was reading the big Miss Saigon thread, and saw differing answers. Now that the show has been running, anyone have a definitive answer?

Alternate is on Thursday evening and Saturday matinees, save holidays, sickness, etc.

The original plan was for Eva to perform only 4 nights a week, has this changed? since the alternate schedule above doesn't add up...

Supposedly, the original plan was for Eva to only perform 4 shows a week - but that has never been the schedule that actually happened. I'm sure that initially the producers were concerned if she could physically do 6-8 performances a week. At some point, they obviously decided she could do 6. The alternate, Tanya Manalang, has received excellent message board reviews.

I don't think Eva doing 4/week was ever meant to happen, I read an interview with her a few months ago and when they asked her about that she called it a "B to the S rumour"

Here is one story about the four shows a week from when Eva was first cast.
