No, I don't think it's worrying. It's very bloody frustrating though, for the likes of us

When they interviewed Fran in the What's On Stage podcast thingy, she said she'd been offered loads of stuff, but she was in a position to hold out and wait for the perfect opportunity. This would absolutely apply to Jessie. I'm sure she's had heaps of offers for lots of different things, but has been advised to wait for the right part. She doesn't need to take the first thing she's been offered. It'll be interesting to see how things pan out with regard to Oliver anyway, I wonder if Cam is putting pressure on her to keep herself free for alternate performances.
After Any Dream Will Do, some of the bigger roles took a bit of time to materialise. Daniel Boys didn't get offered Avenue Q until after Christmas. But that was an opportunity worth waiting for!
I am waiting very impatiently for news, not just from Jessie, but the others too. People like Jess, Rachel, Sarah are far too good not to be snapped up.
