Do we know when Jordan is on as Jamie? I will only pay for this again if he's on. No is the simple answer haha. From October 6th, it will be: John McCrea: Full Time (except Mondays). Luke Bayer: Alternate (scheduled performance: Monday and covering all of John's holidays and illnesses barring his absence). Jordan Cunningham: 2nd Cover (whenever both John and Luke are off). Obviously with rumours of John leaving, this will change come January. But Luke has been VERY consistent, so it'll be interesting to see when Jordan goes on. But I agree, I wanna see Jordan as Jamie!  |

John isn't on as scheduled tonight after a week and a half holiday. Luke will be on for Jamie tonight. Which is hilarious considering he was making comments about his last time on before he becomes alternate and saying farewell to being Jamie alongside Tamsin.  Do we know which shows Luke will do each week once he becomes ALTERNATE JAMIE from 6 October? |

Hmmmm... Thanks! I still have nothing booked for the 31st Oct matinee. I was planning to dayseat for BOOH, but I'll keep an eye on Jordan's social media just in case a miracle happens and he's on that afternoon. Can't wait for my theatre trip, it's been almost 10 months since I last visited London!! |

Luke has just replied to my tweet. He starts Alternate performances October 8th so presumably Monday is one of his dates. Will confirm other dates and shows after then.

Daniel Johnson - you are doing god's work and I so appreciate you! I am pretty god-esque. 😂😂 No, in fairness, I don't do the umming and ahhing. If we want an answer, just ask the performer. And Luke is very active on social media and replies to everyone fast, so you want a quick response with this show, he's the one to go to. |

Luke sends nice replies to everyone who tweets him. He’s even sent them to me.
And it’s a bonus that he’s brilliant as the lead!

Tamsin left the show this past Saturday. Kirstie will play the role of Miss Hedge until Michelle takes over. |

I believe it was scheduled, but Michelle had prior commitments which meant she couldn't start when Tamsin left. I'm intrigued as to what the programme situation will be the next performances until Michelle starts? Will it be Tamsin or Michelle in the programme? I doubt they will have Kirstie listed for just a couple weeks? Sidenote, the website says Michelle begins on the 18th, is it not weird she starts on a Thursday? |

I assume they’ll keep the current programmes that have Tamsin listed until Michelle starts. I too thought it was odd that Michelle is starting on a Thursday, assumed it was just a case of that being the first date she was available to begin. Plus they probably thought it would increase their midweek audience members in a way.
Is there a reason behind cast members contracts all finishing on different dates as opposed to a yearly cast change like most shows West End do?

It gives the main cast their moments to have a "night" that is there's. Like, other shows follow suit... The whole cast of 42nd Street should leave January 5th but Clare Halse leave January 19th. |

According to a post on social media, Tamsin is heading to Australia, so I should imagine it was planned |

Like begins his alternate schedule tonight, every Monday and Wednesday matinee until Jan 2019. Wonder if that’s when his contract is up? Interesting that it could be both John and Luke leaving come January.

Doesn't anyone think Visage is a massive stunt cast mistake? Can she sing, can she actually do a Sheffield accent convincingly or is she playing it as an American?

She doesn't need to do an accent. She could play an American teacher who moved to the UK.

By the looks of it, Luke's finale outfit, whilst still the denim, has had a revamp with the extra bits with red fringe and sequins on the chest of the jacket. I wonder if the same will be for John or if he will keep the original?

That possibility is the most obvious yet completely slipped my mind the other day. |

It's definitely stunt casting, but I think it's clever stunt casting, given that she is associates with drag queens everywhere. Miss Hedge isn't much of a singing role, she raps and talks/sings 'Work of Art' I think she'll be a big draw for alot of people. |
