Comments
Prior to the launch of this tour, this production played at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts in St. Paul, MN from July 24 through August 12, 2001. During that time, the role of Emile de Becque was played by Richard Stilwell, Jerome was played by Jocef Baquilod, Ngana was played by Joreen Baquilod, and John Ayres' track (sailor/ensemble) was played by Roland Rusinek; the rest of the cast was identical to that which launched with the tour.
