Ok, so rumours in both cases rather than anything concrete then. I was just asking because I thought I'd missed an announcement, but actually nothing is confirmed. There hasn’t been a confirmed announcement but Rachael has confirmed at stage door that she is moving to New York. I see, thanks. Looks likely she is leaving then, but that still isn't really confirmation, just that she is moving to New York at some point. Given the dates on the CFA Instagram post, does that make cast change 8 Feb?

WOS posted they are live streaming a west end cast announcement on Friday at 12pm. CFA liked the tweet so wondering if that's when we will find out the new cast?

Great for Rachael if she's heading back to New York, is she not involved with something broadway bound?
Will definitely try and see her one more time before she goes!

I know Jenn Colella either left recently or is leaving the role on Broadway. Wondering if she might be going to do the role on Broadway?

All I can think of is this when scooters are mentioned.

She left so recently (November) that I don't imagine Becky Gulsvig (who replaced her) would be leaving so soon, unless it was a great opportunity that came up. www.theatermania.com/broadway/news/interview-jenn-colella-leaving-come-from-away_90126.html

Kate Graham will be a really lovely Diane - nice that a fair amount of people are doing a second year too!

Alice Fearn taking over from Rachel Tucker is just the excuse I need to go see this show again.

Just when I thought there were no real incentives for a New York trip this year...!
Maybe I can resist, I am at least booked for cast change here.
Definitely agree someone needs to hide her passport, or at least give her an incentive to come back!

If anything was going to tempt me back to New York again it was probably this.
Very excited for her.

LOVE this news; how exciting. Alice Fearn in this role - brilliant. First came across her at the Young Vic (Annie Get Your Gun)

They usually go elsewhere if they're having a party!

Judging from Rachel's Instagram the party was either last night or Thursday.
Those leaving will have to clear their dressing rooms after the evening show next Saturday.

I saw this for the first time on Friday - I knew couple of the main songs and the story, but went into it with an open mind and was really blown away. The whole thing was dealt with in a really sensitive, positive way and was much funnier than I expected. The cast felt really cohesive, its hard to pick out one or 2 stand outs because I believed in everyone's stories, although Hannah (Cat Simmons) was outstanding and devastating. The staging was simple but really effective. I struggled to understand what was being said very occasionally but got used to the accents. We were in the middle of row F and legroom was good and the view perfect. I came out heartbroken, uplifted and wanting to know more about the individual stories, it's a really thought provoking piece.
