Here is a video from her YouTube channel, she has tonnes of them on there! She has an amazing voice! Very young voice though, seemingly is around Philippa's age than Victoria's? Her Daniela may be a younger incarnation.  |

About bleedin' time!! Will catch this cast at some point, but I have to say I am quite trepidatious after the atmosphere at the cast change last Sunday.

I hate to say this, but their casting policy is a mess. First they have to cancel performances for 2 weeks because they didn't start rehearsing their new cast in time, and now they have to get an ex-cast member back because they didn't cast their new Daniela in time.

It's been a disaster. They've known a lot of cast were leaving for a while but left it too late. It's like they really didn't know what was going to happen to the show. Maybe they were seriously considering closing it until not long before September the 4th.
I am a bit tempted to go and see Jocasta as Daniela but I'd rather try and see all the new cast so will probably wait until October.

I'm not surprised, some of the previous replacement cast members had barely any rehearsal and if they had any before their first performance it wasn't with the full cast. They're not very organised it seems...

They had known that for months. They couldn't have been considering to close the show earlier than was initially announced only to then extend the run with a few months. |

That was when it was booking until but it wouldn't be the first time a show closed before the date it was booking to. Whatever the reason, it's just been terrible planning by somebody or somebodies. |

Aren't they limited because of the railway children playing as well. Surely their rehearsal in the theatre would have been when railway children is playing in order for the former cast to do a show in the evening, which is not possible therefore they have to rehearse on show time and can't perform ? That's what I assumed was happening

That's what I assumed was happening I think they usually rehearse most of it in a rehearsal room and then have a few put in rehearsals on stage. Nothing to justify the long break |

That's what I assumed was happening I think they usually rehearse most of it in a rehearsal room and then have a few put in rehearsals on stage. Nothing to justify the long break Stage rehearsal for this would take at least a week if they had access to the theatre like any other long running show but the fact that they have to put the set and everything back from the railway children performance during the day probably mean it would take longer. They have to go through the entire show on stage to make sure staging is good and people know what to do with the actual props and set (the laders are probably gonna take a while) as well as having a look at the choreography and making sure everyone stands in the right position. The blackout scene must also take a while to make sure that people don't run into each other in the dark as I'm assuming they didn't turn off and on the lights in the rehearsal room (even though I think it would be pretty funny) |

Appears that there is now an alternate Kevin. Assume this means there will be scheduled show(s) off each week for David?

Very odd that Vas isn't the alternate.
(Thanks for sharing.)

So Paula and Tara are the new Jocasta by the looks of things... |

I'd lean towards saying Tara is the new Sarah, but they've mixed it up a bit.

Very odd way of doing it. So there are three people to cover Kevin?!

Oh I see. As I say, an odd way to do it. Oh well.

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that Vanessa and Abuela share an understudy?

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird that Vanessa and Abuela share an understudy? "So, Usnavi, what attracted you to your girlfriend Vanessa?" "She reminds me of my dead abuela, but it's not weird 'cos she's not really my abuela, she just practically raised me." |

Yes it's weird but I don't think there's much that's normal about the casting of this production.
