Thanks so much for the info. How difficult will it be for me to get Telecharge to exchange my tickets for another performance? Any suggestions on how to successfully do an exchange over the phone?
Their schedule is not completely set in stone I was there tonight and the whole cast was in, including Eva and Jon Jon. In the playbill it specifically outlines the Kim schedule and there was no slip announcing Eva as performing. It was Pinoy night so that might have had something to do with it. So glad I saw Eva....she absolutely killed it.

The last 2 times I saw the show Rachelle was out (she has missed quite a few already and said she was sick via Twitter.)
Ericka Hunter was fantastic. Amazing belt with such emotion. Plus her body was Killer! Basically owned "Movie in my Mind." - Would love to see her Ellen
Kimberly-Ann Truing looked amazing, but made different choices in her song. Her acting was spot on, she even made the end of Act 1 (walking to the boat) 10 second moment heart wrenching. So for Gigi's they have 2 great covers!
Does anyone know when Rachelle's last day is at Miss Saigon? Since she will be starring in West End's Hamilton this fall, I heard she will be leaving Miss Saigon sometime in July or August?
I went to the Saturday matinee two days ago. I originally had a ticket to the 8pm show but for that swapped to see the Julianne and Derek Hough show at Radio City Music Hall. For the Miss Saigon matinee, I had the alternate Kim and understudy Chris. Let's just say I wish I had gone to the evening performance instead.
I went on Friday evening and saw Colby as Chris and thought he was very good and I thought his acting was really strong - especially his final scene with Kim at the end. I also loved the way his and Eva's voices blended.
I got to see Jon Jon this time as The Engineer and he was incredible and I do wish he had been nominated for the performance he's giving because it is deserving.

Rushed this today. Got Row A mezannine house right. Amazing seats. Lianah was Kim but Jon Jon, Alistair, Devin and Rachelle were all there. It's been a while since I've seen this and I'm glad I revisited it. All the performers were spot on.
