I think Cook was out for more than two shows. Corey Mach went on Aug. 2 & 3 plus John Jeffrey Martin was one at least once last week as Charlie."
Corey Mach did go on the 2nd & 3rd. I know John Jeffrey Martin did do Bryant Park but I

Last night was his first night out(Mach was on ) . He didn't do his weekly radio show on Weds for being sick. He only missed one show during his first run. He has a scheduled absence on August 26 .Kinky had the understudies perform at Bryant Park for some reason but had the principals perform at the event in the Bronx the next

Glad to see another slight bump for Kinky .Heard there's good word of mouth going around on David Cook's return .Let's hope that the next Charlie will be "big " as rumored so that beautiful show won't have to close !
When I was at the Hirschfield on Sunday, I was thinking it would be wayy to small for Moulin Rogue from the pictures I've seen of the Boston production. Guess they want it to be like a BOM?
Glad to see a slight bump for Kinky with David Cook's return ! It seemed pretty full yesterday and there was a pretty crowded stage door that went past the barricade afterwards (in the pouring rain )
It looked like it was sold out or almost sold out yesterday. There was a big crowd at the stage door that wrapped beyond the barricade. I hope they cast a big name after David finishes in Sept. It deserves to last longer...It's a shame that Urie is touring for the next 6 months
Well the show was INCREDIBLE yesterday.David was an amazing Charlie and I thought he sounded better than Stark on the OBC. J. Harrison Ghee was a phenomenal Lola and being in the 3rd row even made it better! I loved Carrie St. Louis as Lauren and Caroline Bowman as Nicola too.
David came out right before the downpour and was humble and gracious as ever to every fan in line. He even stayed during the pouring rain.It was an honor to finally meet him after the 10+ year wait. When my mom a

Any word on Pottamer? Chris Mann wouldn't surprise me.. He said on his IG story when he was in NYC back in May that he had a meeting with Telsey and was in NYC a few days ago (Looked like it was for work reasons according to his stories) He also saw the show(He's close friends with Katie Lowes and Adam Shapiro though) . He was supposed to do The Voice Vegas but it's canceled for now...

I saw the show on his 2nd to last night with his first run. It was also Carrie St. Louis' first night. Ghee was Lola as well. The entire cast was phenomenal. David's acting really surprised me because it was so believable, and I wasn't expecting much from his singing bas
Anybody go to his first night back? Saw a video on Twitter of the curtain call and it looks like there was a packed house with a lot of noise! Excited to go on Sunday!

She has sang at events for her theater company in LA. and I remember seeing a video on one of my social media feeds of her singing the National Anthem somewhere. I thought she had the potential to play Jenna (Especially since she's friends with Sara) but I think she'

I know that Lowes and Shapiro are friends with Sara so I thought this was a joke at first.I saw a video of Katie singing the National Anthem somewhere and I thought she'd be a good Jenna.This casting seems kind of last minute so I wonder what happened ? Lowes is also two years older than McPhee and I think a year older than Mueller?

Somebody on All Things Broadway said the same thing ..Guess APA is leaving the same time as Jackie ? They announced that Jessica Vosk is replacing Jackie but didn't announce the Fieyro replacement

I remember people mentioned in the thread on David Cook coming back that they were thinking he was just a filler for a "big star " to come in the fall. I'm seeing the show on Cook's first Sunday back in 3 weeks and I really hope it doesn't turn into an Oak situation with Jordan&nb
