Didn't Ibanabo leave for medical reasons? I know that everyone loves Asmeret, and she IS good..But Ibanabo just stole the show during her bits. She did, and she saw that the Dreamgirls twitter shaded her too when they posted about those awards. |

"Three different flavours of Effie, all supporting each other" Hmmmmm 😂 Marisha did most of the talking in the video I see, no surprise there. (NO SHADE I LOVE MARISHA) |

I'm so intrigued to see who goes on when come November 20th. I suspect Marisha does half and the other girls do two each.

I do wonder if there will be a set schedule?

Surely the shows will have to be evenly split? I don't know the ins and outs of Equity/contracts etc, but if there is a hierarchy then that should be documented. |

There’s only 8 shows in a week, so they can’t have equal shows. I presume it’ll be 3,3,2 per week. Or maybe Marisha will do 5 like Amber did? |

I presume it’ll be 3,3,2 per week. Or maybe Marisha will do 5 like Amber did? I was thinking, something like 4 performances on, 4 performances off, and 4 performances in the building as Standby. That makes 12 shows, so with an 8 show week, the cycle would repeat every 3 weeks. It means that they'd all get to do every day of the week in turn, so no one is stuck doing just matinees, they all get to have a weekend off every couple of weeks etc. However I expect that there'll just be a random schedule, that will make no sense to any of us, but will balance out for the 3 of them over the course of the contract. I'm most intrigued to see what will happen when one of them is sick - will they stick to whatever schedule they settle on, and therefore chuck on the understudy, or will they just jiggle it so that one of the other Effies goes on. Theoretically, with 3 "leads" they could never need to use the understudy at all, as has been the case so far with Candace not going on. |

I'm hoping they won't do the same shows every week, equally I hope they all get the same amount of shows (scheduled at least).
I highly doubt we'll ever see the understudy go on, they'll work it so that one of the other two goes on. At least that's how I took the announcement, three Effie's with no confirmed shows as such, so that no one can 'complain' because they're seeing someone who isn't the 'lead'.

Going from Brennyn's instagram it doesn't look like she's joined rehearsals yet?

Possibly the new understudy? What’s the link? It was yesterday or the day before I believe so it would have disappeared by now. It was just her filming her heels and you could hear them singing in the background. It was Moya and whoever was singing Deena's part (possibly Nicole Deon? I thought she was the new understudy Deena but her Instagram says Cover Deena so who knows). Samira Mighty was the one that posted the story. |

That is how I read the announcement too, but with this show anything can happen! I suspect there will be no public schedule at all. It could well be down to who gets into the building and the costume first goes on!!!! |

wickedgrin I agree that it’s incredibly unlikely for a public schedule to be announced. I have no doubts there’ll be a schedule but I do doubt it’ll be one that a) we hear about and b) we can figure out. As long as I manage to catch Moya at some point I’ll be happy. I’ve got no problems seeing either Marisha or Karen but as I’ve already seen them I’m not as bothered

Even if the schedule isn't released by the show, I'm pretty sure Marisha will announce which shows she's doing ahead of time on twitter like she has been for the past year.

 Pretty sure that’s Nicole Deon being rehearsed as Deena on the right, Brennyn has yet to join rehearsals it seems. |

Love that we're able to see the improvement, comparing this to the audio that surfaced on youtube. I reckon she'll be more perfected this new cast change as she's being rehearsed more with the new cast. Interesting to see her attempt the note that amber does on the OLC (but doesn't do it in the show) ('I know you CAN". |

Thanks for sharing. It's not listed on YouTube or on their channel. I wonder if they will once Amber leaves.
Watching this is impressive, but I have a feeling she does not quite hit those notes in an actual performance. Ditto to Marisha, who struggles with the more ambitious parts of the song.
I'd love to see Karen or Moya.
