For the record
Who went on
that night?
If you saw an understudy go on as Elphaba on a random Tuesday in 2019, there’s essentially no authoritative source that proves it happened. Recast is building that source — one performance at a time.
Understudy slips get lost. This doesn’t.
The insert slip in your program is the only proof a cover went on — and it ends up in a recycling bin by Wednesday. Online cast lists vanish after a few weeks. So the single most exciting nights in theater — debuts, covers, final performances — leave almost no trace.
Recast keeps a page for every performance. Who was on stage. Who was out that night. Who covered, and in which role. Swings who went on without a named track show up under “Also on tonight.” It’s permanent, and it’s there for good.
On, out, and covering
Every performance shows who was on stage, who was out that night, and who stepped in to cover.
Swings get credit
A swing who went on for three tracks without a named slot? “Also on tonight” puts them on the record too.
Prove you were there
Saw a legend’s final bow, or an understudy go on cold? That becomes a fact you can point to, not defend.
