During this run, Rob Norman got an offer he couldn't refuse, and had to miss one performance. He was replaced by Mike Tanchuk, who knocked all of our socks off with his ability to memorize the script, songs and choreography in just one week. He also became the new favorite person of the playwright's mother, Sandra Maggio.
The show was asked back by Theatre Aquarius, along with one other production from the fringe, to do a repeat performance in October of 2011.
