We don't know for sure, when Ben got pulled out various times people got emails saying this:
"NOTE: If you are exchanging into a future performance, be aware that availability is extremely limited until February 2018. Beginning November 21, the role of Evan Hansen will be played by Noah Galvin and, for Wednesday and Saturday matinees, by Michael Lee Brown. Beginning in February, Taylor Trensch will play the role six times per week."
But the website just says:
"“The Real O’Neals” star, Noah Galvin, will play the title role beginning November 21, 2017 and current Hello, Dolly! star Taylor Trensch will assume the role of Evan Hansen beginning mid-January. Michael Lee Brown and Colton Ryan will continue to understudy the role of Evan Hansen."
The purchasing page for the 1/10 Matinee gives no notice of an alternate playing. So we will probably just have to wait for tomorrow afternoon to figure out. If MLB goes on then, then I think it's safe to say Evan will always have an alternate.
apologies that this question is a bit off-topic, but for anyone who has experience going to the Macy's parade, is there any point in going very early and trying to see the cast perform? Don't have grandstand seats and have heard viewing is limited from the other side because of the TV crews. We aren't expecting a particularly great view, but even if we could find a way to peek through we'd give it a shot for the hell of it.

I'm of the opinion that is rarely makes sense to go see something being staged for TV, since it will always look better on TV... I carry that over to seeing Fallon, Colbert, etc., though, too.
Was anyone from this board at Noah's debut? Mining the internet and can't find anything beyond the usual debut coverage w photos // stage door video // congratulatory responses from the cast. I have seen both Ben and MLB in the lead role (both excellent, but my heart is with Ben's tenor & him in general). So curious how it went for Noah.
Looking for a Sunday ticket in December or January (before Taylor Trensch starts). I’ll do a Saturday matinee but would rather do a Sunday. Under $250 and doesn’t matter where the seat is (Mezz, orch, left, right, center, partial view, etc.) PM or reply here. Thanks!
edit to add: I’m seeing Taylor Trensch in May (assuming he’s performing the Sunday we go). I’d rather see Noah, MLB, or Colton to see how they play Evan to when I saw Ben Platt’s Evan.
Would just like to shout gut everyone on this board! Super great tips that allowed me to see DEH today, which I totally didn't think I would be able to. Was able to get second-row tickets at original price off telecharge and had an amazing time watching MLB and the rest of the cast. Everyone who hasn't seen it yet...keep trying, because the show is truly superb. Again, thank you for all of the awesome tips!

Do they list MLB as alternate Evan on the cast page in the playbill now or does it still list him as an understudy?
Alternate for Evan Hansen (Wednesday & Saturday matinees): MICHAEL LEE BROWN Understudy for Evan Hansen, Jared Kleinman, Connor Murphy: COLTON RYAN, MICHAEL LEE BROWN, BEN LEVI ROSS
THANK YOU to everyone who posted that there are tickets available on Telecharge! I've been looking on StubHub and crying over the prices, but I found this board then went to Telecharge and bought tix to see Noah in January for a decent price! And orchestra seats so I don't have to squint from far away!! So excited. My daughter has seen Colton as Evan, and I haven't seen the show at all.
I have 2 tickets on Friday March 2 I can no longer use. They are in Right Mezzanine, Row D. Just looking to sell for what I paid which is $212/ticket after fees. Please PM me if interested.
I've been looking for some tickets from the venue to see Noah, and I'm kicking myself for not buying some front-row seats when they were released. I see them on StubHub for $1,000 a piece now
