In reply to: “COMPANY” ANNOUNCES NEW BROADWAY DATES AND ADDITIONAL CASTING - Official_Press_Release 11:07 am EDT 07/06/21

I may be missing something (I'm probably missing something) but I needed to refresh my memory about who was playing Theo (it was Kyle Dean Massey) so I went to IBDB and, oddly, it seems like the aborted preview period is expunged from the site. If you go to the page for this production, it notes that it opens in January and lists an opening night cast that currently lacks a Theo but there doesn't seem to be any indication of the preview cast as it existed in March, although a trip to Massey's page does reveal that he was playing Theo. Clicking on that production returns you to the January opening cast. Admittedly, it's a small sample size of one production that happened to be in previews right when Broadway shut down but it'd be a bummer if there's no way to note it in IBDB.

Usually IBDB will list people who leave during Previews under Replacements. If you go back to the listing for Company, you'll see Replacements after Opening Night Cast. Kyle Dean Massey is listed there as well as Stanley Bahorek.

Thanks much. I actually thought to click on "Replacements" but thought better of it, since it doesn't really make sense to put Massey there. Anyway, I'm glad the site accounts for that.

Still, they will have to find some way to account for the various shows that started previews, stopped because of Covid, and then resumed a year later, as well as for cast changes in those handful of shows.
