Scott Alan tweeted this, but I haven't seen info anywhere? Is this real?

Scott Alan wouldn't go making things up like this, so I'm sure it's true. Whether or not this is something he was supposed to announce is another matter entirely.

The wording of Alan's tweet implies that Brescia is actually stepping in for Garrett Long as the offstage swing while she's on for Jones, which makes sense.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I am DYING for her to become a full-time replacement. I would do anything to see her in this.

Brescia is now a professor at a university somewhere in the Midwest, so I don't think she could step into the show long-term (unless she were to take a sabbatical). Likely she's able to do the summer standby gig because school's not in session.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

The university she teaches at actually is in session, so that's interesting.

And while we're on Lisa, let's all remember why she's so damned talented...
