This does seem a bit odd. I would doubt (although I admit I don't know) that the role of Eowyn would be scrapped in the Musical. I think it more as the author of the article just looked passed her.
I read and write a lot of reviews on IMDB and when mentioning characters only the most stand-out or important ones usually get mentioned. Meaning a lot of people get overlooked, some important roles aren't even mentioned.
Usually the main hero/heroine and the villain are talked about. Other supporting roles are briefly mentioned (if at all). I think this is what happened in the case with Eowyn, it would be strangely odd if they completely scrapped her in the musical.
