Can anyone advise on whether Justin Collette or Conner John Gillooly (alternate) is better in the role?

Also would Conner John Gillooly get scheduled for matinees where there are two shows? For Sunday there is only one show who would be likely to be on?

Thanks!!

A bit late but thanks for your answer!
I went to the TKTS booth last Sunday asking for School of Rock tickets but unfortunately they only had single tickets left. This is the second time it has happened to me. Ended up seeing The Band's Visit instead.
I will definitely try again for School of Rock next time I'm in town.

Justin Fits the role better Bc of look. Connor is thin and attractive (doesn’t fit the description at all) but I think the hands down WORST Dewey ever was Erik Petersen

Justin did an Instagram take over on a random account and mentioned that he saw this thread and was jokingly upset about it. 

I saw Justin a few months ago and I loved him and I personally felt like he embodied Dewey perfectly. I would love to see Andrew at some point because he's just delightful. 

I haven't seen JWag in awhile, but I really loved his performance and I LOVED Will Blum's Dewey a lot. Also not to be counted out but Alex Brightman was a star.

Omg I run that “random account” showed Justin this and he had no idea this was actually a thing and he’s laughing about it

I found Justin great in the role. He played a very funny, charming loser type very believably, so that you wanted to root for him. 

I haven’t seen Connor. Would love to see what Andrew Kober could do.
