Does anyone know when/if Merle Dandridge will be returning to Once On This Island? I'm looking into getting tickets to see the show again but would like to see her.
When did she leave this show? I've become quite a fan of hers after watching 'Greenleaf' the past two seasons, and the only reason I would want to go see OOTI is to see her on B'way. I was planning on making a trip to NY in the next month or so.

Yes, it as mentioned that filming was the reason for her contractual leave. No return date has been announced for her or Quentin, the actor who originated Agwe.

Thanks!"
I saw it twice, once with Merle and once with Tamyra. They were both amazing and each one brought something special to the role.
I'm sure she will be back as soon as possible on her filming wraps. She will want to be back close to Tony nomination time to be seen by nominators. Having seen her in the show, I think she has a chance at a featured actress nom... pending the rest of the spring shows opening of course but certainly a contender.
