| For what it is worth, Duff-Griffin really was awful in the role. It was the right move, despite the off-stage drama that ensued. | |

| It's so funny that you say that because I also saw Duff-Griffin at an early preview and then returned at some point later and saw Tom Aldredge in the role. And I genuinely could not figure out why Duff-Griffin had been replaced. I didn't think his performance was bad and also didn't see Tom Aldredge doing anything so differently as to really affect anything or make one realize why he was preferable to Duff-Griffin. Both were solid, small featured performances in a show that doesn't have a lot of room for characters other than the three leads. |

| I didn't think Duff-Griffin was bad, but I think his dry, ironic delivery was getting laughs when discussing Fosca. As the authors/director were trying to get rid of laughter at Fosca, they thought he was part of the problem. This is my perception of why he was fired. Personally, I think they made a mistake in trying to eliminate all of the laughter, but it was their choice. | |
