A swing person is actually part of the ensemble. However, on a performance that a featured performer can not perform, their "swing" person fills in. Swing people can learn and perform the parts of several characters in a musical. It is a great way to enhance your skills as a beginning/intermediate performer. Usually, in Equity Theatres, the "swing" person is usually announced prior to the performance, or a little paper insert is inserted in the musical's program, alerting the audience of the casting change.
