Neil McCaffrey
Tessa Netting, on her formspring page today, confirmed that Neil McCaffrey, who most recently took Jake Evan Schwencke's place as Randolph MacAfee in "Bye, Bye Birdie", will take on the role of Michael in BETM, ironically in rotation with Jake, when David B. leaves the show in August.

Re: Neil McCaffrey
With Jake Evan Schwencke announcing his two month leave of absence from BETM-NY, it now looks like Neil will again be taking Jake's place in a show, this time going into the Michael rotation with the previously announced Ben Cook.

Re: Neil McCaffrey
I saw Neil in Mary Poppins in May and he was great - good voice and great actor. Looking forward to seeing him as Michael later this year!

Re: Neil McCaffrey
So, Neil was my first Michael on Broadway...
He reminded me a lot of Jake Pratt (a London Michael) and was really cheeky and a joy to watch. Singing, dancing and acting were brilliant.
