Profile for AC126748

As of right now, I'd say Manville and Coon look like the only locks to me. Squibb will probably be nominated. It's the title role, so I doubt there would be any chance of her being considered in the featured category. And I'm sure the production would petition for leading anyway so as not to conflict with Cynthia Nixon.

I could imagine Metcalf being nominated, but the early closure of Little Bear Ridge Road probably doesn't work in her favor. She went

I saw a regional production several years ago that had the horrible idea of casting men as the two primary female characters. (The less said, the better.) Despite that regrettable choice, I found the play quite funny and engaging on its own terms, especially the material for the maid. The Roundabout cast is strong -- I'm hoping this will be one of their excellent traditional productions of a throwback play like The Constant Wife, Heartbreak House and The Winslo

I saw the final Saturday matinee. Quite a few stars in the audience: Samuel and LaTonya Jackson, Edie Falco (in the same row as the Jacksons), Hugh Dancy and Claire Danes. I spotted an empty seat here and there, but it definitely seemed full. The crowd gave the cast a huge hand at curtain.

ACL2006 said: "any rumors on the next round of casting? Are Kumail & Urie staying past Sept. 28?"

No idea about Kumail Nanjiani, but Michael Urie begins performances in Red Bull's Richard II on October 28, so I doubt he could stay past his current contract date. 

As for the hypothetical SNL lady who could be taking over: lots of possibilities, no? Guessing the likes of Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph and Amy Poehler are unlikely. Ana Gas
