I believe he’s filling in for Jake Boyd while Jake is doing Becoming Nancy in Atlanta. Becoming Nancy closes in October so I’d guess you’d more than likely be seeing Kyle Dean Massey.

SchuylWERKsister said: "This is all a bit... odd. When Caroline Bowman missed for an extended amount oftime, it was known that it was due to some sort of injury and Christine came in as a temporary replacement. Alison was outfor a bit on tour I believe and Dee temporarily replaced. All this to say thatHannah certainly isn’t the first Elphaba to miss a substantialchunk of performances, but something about this just seems off. This reads more like the Caissie Levy Wicked LA situation where nothing was said said for weeks and then she was fired.

I certainly hope she returns, and my greater hope is that she is well and that this isn’t a more serious issue ala Benanti in Into the Woods.

Do we know why Caissie was fired in LA?

We just saw WICKED Saturday evening 8/17. KDM was in for Jake Boyd (much to our delight).

Got to see Jennifer/Jake  while Hannah was out in July 3rd.  Nancy was also out as Morrible July 3rd

 

Hannah was FANTASTIC. Reminded me a lot of Jackie Burns but with LOTS of her own choices. As she grows with this company, I think she'll find herself more and more comfortable with the role (as I assume ANY Elphie would)

Brittney Johnson is on as Glinda 9/5-9/11. I’m hoping to be able to go once during her scheduled dates.

Hopefully soon.

I've seen some people say Allison Bailey (former Glinda Standby) will take over from Erin.

I feel like Hannah hasn't even been in the show that long! How long are typical lead contracts for Wicked? Anyone know?

Last week of September or first week of October. If Allison is in fact, Glinda. I would expect her not to join for a few weeks still.
