A reliable source informs La Cieca that Jossie Perez will now sing no performances of the Met’s Romeo et Juliette. At the moment, she’s still listed on the Met’s web site for seven of the season’s scheduled 11 performances, but that may be just until her sub has signed on the dotted line. As reported here previously, Joyce DiDonato gets the prima of this new production.

UPDATE: As of Sunday night, Perez is now out of all fall performances; she’s still skedded for the spring revival including the broadcast. And La Cieca is now officially going to stop obsessing about this bit of casting.
