Maybe they announce if the cast differs from the schedule.

No, they don't!

I was told at the box office that one definitely should not expect an understudy to perform. It is not planned.
Yet the program names Thomas Kvamme Urnes(Michael) and Matias Karlsen Bache(Poshboy) as understudy for Billy.

I'm actually astonished that Kevin can shoulder all those performances!

If you look at the schedule, they are only doing four shows per week, essentially on weekends.

Considering in London they do 8 shows a week with 4 Billys then it's a very remarkable accomplishment, I think.
