Did you guys forget that Josh Henry played KG3 in the read through. It could be him as well as BVD, Kyle Scatliffe, or Isaiah Johnson.

WHEN he signed the contract has little to do with it.  He would have made his own negotiations, regardless.  (Or someone did on his behalf, before someone jumps on me for a technicality.)  

 

This is no different then when "normal" people accept a new job but already have, for example, vacation plans.  When it's agreed upon during the hiring process, there's no problems.  

 

 

 

 

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Ooh! I like the idea of Isaiah Johnson in particular. Not as much as John Henry, but he could still be great.

They must have forgotten.  Or not, because a bunch of people already brought it up, read the thread much?

I think it's only a matter of time before Jame Monroe Iglehart joins the show.

If it ends up being Isaiah Johnson I will have to start camping out in the cancellation line!

Joshua Henry posted on Twitter reminding people to come see SA before the 24th, so it doesn't seem like he's leaving his show early, if he even is the new Burr.

There were, in fact, a couple of people speculating that he could leave early or that Rudin wouldn't let him out of his contract.  You may not have been the one contemplating it, but there were others.

I just finished watching a PBS Great Performances - In The Heights Chasing Broadway Dreams and I spotted who looked like a cast member of Shuffle Along (Joshua Henry) in the ensemble. A Google search confirmed who I thought he was.  So purely based on the loyalty I've seen from people in Lin Manuel's previous projects crossing over into the next ones, maybe it is Joshua Henry as a previous poster suggested.  He also has theater credit for Bring It On. 

Based on his headshot, he looks like he'd be quite the Burr.  I really enjoyed his performance in Shuffle Along.  Those fur coats!

If you've seen him live and enjoyed his performance, why is your opinion "based on his headshot"?

In Shuffle his role is very entertaining and happy, well with all the tap dancing and all.  He's so elegant and debonair with his suits and tuxedos.  

With one of his headshots, there's a gaze.  One that does evoke an image of him being a really good Burr.  The "villain in your history"

Based on my own meager, third-hand knowledge, this is the key piece of info. There is (was?) an offer ready to be made and a contract to be bought out...and therein lies the rub.

And then after the line, "You are the worst, Burr," she stops the show to lecture the audience on how terrible it is go beyond light snark.

Patti shoots Alexander, then gives a ten minute monologue about how it's a metaphor for the deadly use of words. Even light snark can hurt sometimes too. Who lives, who dies, who tweets your callout posts?

Hasn't it been confirmed that Donald Trump is taking over the role? His singing voice employs the same vomiting quality of enunciation as his speaking voice. Just imagine the delicacy and lyrical beauty the man will bring to each performance.
