If a cast member wishes to post why they are off, it is up to them. A lot of people post insta stories. All I think the company needs to say is holiday or indisposed. The 2nd could cover pretty much anything. We never knew why people were off pre-social media times.
London to B'ham is only 90 odd ,minutes by train so Laura H can get up to there pretty quickly. I just have a vision of her travelling in her green make up although this wouldn't have happened.

I’m pretty sure there are scheduled shows off for Laura and Sarah in each venue when Casey and Megan will go on but I’m not sure if they get to take time off outside of the weeks they get off between venues? Unless there are week breaks between the tour venues then they would be entitled to holidays. I don't know what the maximum number of consecutive weeks a show can run be it in one venue or on tour before someone would be entitled to statutory holiday?

Maddison Firth is on as Elphaba tonight (5th April, 2024). I was there tonight and thought Maddison was very good! She’s got a few performances under her belt now and was very confident. Very powerful voice and held back on the riffs which enabled her to have more oomph. No Good Deed was a highlight! 💚 One thing that I did notice…I’ve seen Wicked over 50 times now (!!!) but tonight was the first ever time that there was no applause and just a deadly silence after ‘I’m Not That Girl’. Maddison sang it beautifully and I was ready to clap, but it just never happened and the silence in the whole theatre lasted at least 2 seconds before Morrible came on with her line! Has anyone else encountered this? I suppose it’s just one of those numbers that hits the audience differently with its emotional ending… Interesting to note, too, that Amy Webb was down as standby on the cast board…
