Any truth to the LaChanze rumor?"
I wonder why they're delaying announcing her standby?unless whoever they originally had backed out?"
I've heard that Sharon Catherine Brown will stand by for Audra."
You’re right this makes more

Little Shop...Who Leads? Anyone know? Sep 21

PipingHotPiccolo said: "Kad said: "I think recent years have demonstrated that Little Shop is such a strongly written show that it basically always just works, with performers of different backgrounds bringing new things to it."
This is the right answer. Audrey works as a clueless young'n, and is a different kind of tragic as an older woman still in this vulnerable position. SEYMOUR, however, doesnt make sense to me as an older guy- his nebb

This makes sense! Also I am THRILLED about Joaquina. THRILLED!!!!!!!"
Love them both, but I think Joaquina fits it a bit more, both age wise and based on her previous work. Joy would have been a revelation tho!

Phillytheatreguy10 said: "Mrs. Potiphar seems more in line with what she has said recently regarding acting work. She has said something along the lines of not wanting to commit to a lot of hours on sets and would rather a part where she could be in and out ala a cameo. I'm a HUGE Britney fan and I'd love to see her in anything any time soon!"
This would be amazing. Honestly, she was pretty great in guest spots on Will & Grace and How I Met Your Mother. W

Ta’Rea was my first Angelica in an otherwise meh cast in St. Louis. Satisfied was one of the best parts of the show. We had understudies for Hamilton, Burr, and Laf/Jeff and the chemistry between the male leads was

It makes me so happy to see Marla Mindelle getting her flowers. I saw her in Sister Act and that woman is just a bundle of talent.

SIX Cast Being Bullied? Aug 1
2024, 07:26:56 AM
According to the comments, there was a fan account made to hate on Janiq Charles who currently plays Parr on the West End. The fandom is cucubananas. Courtney Bowman got a lot of racist backlash and fat shaming when she was cast, I don’t understand it. The point of the show is to not compare women…

Lead Sally yes, tho all of the understudies on Broadway are woc

The Rebecca Frecknall production, which starred Paul Mescal in London.
A lot of star-driven works kick around for a while and either never happen or they happen when said star has a 20-week break in their calendar and wantsto make time for Broadway."
Wasn’t this rumored to star Taron Egerton and Meghann Fahy?

Why did High Fidelity Flop? Jul 5

Alex Kulak2 said: "High Fidelity, the2006 based on the Nick Hornbynovel and the John Cusack movie is one of those shows that's history has always confounded me. It was an unbelievable flop, but by my estimation, it's really good. Clever lyrics, fun use of genre in the music, it does a lot to make the main character likable.
It was a tough race that year for musicals (we also hadSpring Awakening, Legally Blonde, Curtains, andGrey Garde

She originated the role of Dorothy in "The Wiz" on Broadway. A simple search will tell you more about her. Or just read her bio at the end of the BWW announcement."
I read her bio, I know who SHE IS, i just meant i have no familiarity with her work, no feelings about her one way or the other.

Well, for the most Tony-winning actress in history, her standby needs to at least have one!"
LaChanze would be an incredible choice

Any new DORIAN GRAY rumors? May 5

MasterThespian 2 said: "This West End production looks extremelyinteresting. There was a bit of buzz that it might be coming to Broadway. Anyone hearing rumors they care to share? Thanks."
I would say it’s extremely likely. Also, Cate Blanchett already bought the film rights as a producer which makes me very curious.
