| This is uncharted territory - and rather than an opposite gender actor taking over the role full time, this role was shared from day one. I cannot imagine a play making its point this strongly other than with a Down syndrome actor in the leading role. Extraordinary in so many ways. | |

| I thought the Andy thing was just announced last week. Have they been alternating all along? | |

| It was announced ages ago. I saw the show on 2/11 & it was already public at that point. | |

| I almost think there may have been something in the Playbill (like a note from the playwright section) that mentioned it would be Andy & The Orphans if/when he got to go on. I'll see if I can find my playbill when I get home later | |

| The alternating is new, but he was always the understudy. (NM) | |
