Well this was is the only show I’m seeing on my New York trip, I was the matinee yesterday & absolutely loved it!
I have fallen in love with the cast album beforehand so admittedly I didn’t go in cold for this!
We had all the original cast on, Andy is excellent but I thought that Samantha really smashes this out the park & was so wonderful to see her in a lead role on Broadway. Also the vocals on Orfeh is insane (also nice that give ‘Kit’ a small character arc).
The one thing I wasn’t prepared for was how emotional act 2 was, my friend & I shed many tears.
I love it & fingers crossed it makes its way to London!!

Jillian Mueller and Brennin Hunt will take over as Vivian and Edward on Broadway in July.
I believe Samantha Barks and Andy Karl will play their final performance on 21st July.

I guess the Adam Pascal plans fell through. Any relation between Jillian Mueller and the Jessie Mueller family of performers..

Jillian Mueller has been the understudy Vivian. She's getting a promotion.

Shame, the new cast only gets to perform for three weeks. I'm not surprised that it's closing, the grosses have been in free-fall for the last month.
