I suggested Lea Delaria for Rose on post #185 of this thread! 
Sure, she's maybe more suited for Mazeppa.  But maybe she can be Audra's matinee alternate. (although Cynthia Erivo might not allow that...)

Dolly's coat of many colors is now just a red parka. 

Speaking of Sudeikis:
Hannah Waddingham for Tessie please. And she can be the alternate Rose at matinees.
(I realize she wouldn't take on this featured role at this high point of her career, but she'd be perfect)

My million dollar casting idea of the day: Lea DeLaria

Could you even imagine.

Well hopefully by 2026 someone will realize how wrong she is for this.

Anyone know how they preset the Norma at the top of the stairs? Did they fly it in, and then she ran up there? (The Tony's video would suggest, at least for that event, that she was up there at the top of the show)

I thought this was a late April fools' joke.

I hope the members picket.

Also wish they'd continue the 'throwback' performances like they did in 2021(?). 

Wonder if we'll get a Erivo/Grande performance.
Possibly presenting at the Oscars was enough for them.

I thought it was Noah Galvin.

It's Vanessa Williams.

Surprised she'd take this on after Ugly Betty.  But she'll be great in the role.

^Assuming that is fan made, as the film isn't using Hilferty's designs (as pictured).

I'm already tired of what Cynthia will wear on the press tour.

Gives away way too much for a teaser.
Also too much CGI.

JK has little to no involvement with the stage show (except for collecting her cheques).
Her contributions to the script were only to the Dumbledore scenes.

Lately there's been a 'I have a show on CBS' nominee. My guess for 2024 would be Kathy Bates as she'll have the Matlock reboot.

(I'm sure you all noticed the blatant Equalizer shilling during Latifah's segment)

It did make me long for the days of a dignified Walter Cronkite introduction. You know, vs. Estefan doing the Conga (?!)

MTI's Hairspray page says:
RESTRICTIONS MAY APPLY. PROCESSING TIME FOR APPLICATIONS MAY EXCEED NORMAL WAIT TIMES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

TotallyEffed said: "It seems a bit odd they'd be shooting seven days a week but I suppose anything is possible now that the strike is over."

Even if they are filming a 5 day week, would you be able to work, let's say 60-70 hours in those 5 days, and then do a 3 show weekend on Broadway.  Probably not.

No one is walking away from seeing Radcliffe and Groff because Mendez is out.
And yes, the majority of people seeing the show probably don't know who she is anyway.  It's the theater nerds that care.
