Yes, Harris was announced as Tessie, and I think she may have started rehearsals. I don't recall ever having read anything terribly specific about why she was replaced (and, of course, if I had read something, it might not have been accurate).

I was told by one of the producers that she couldn't handle the pressure of performing. But that is all I knew and that could mean anything.
