And that is why he will get to keep his hair! Good guess Broadwaybelter. That is practically perfect.

No, No broadwaybelter; Gavin will be a superb Glinda.

Well...though his next endeavor is top secret (at the moment),
I wish him well - he is quite a nice guy and (IMHO) a really great performer.

I know he'll be lucky....as lucky can be......

Ummm...nope.

Think you need to go back through jimnysf and my posts.
He might just need a trim, because he could probably put the rest up under a cap. You know, the kind that are worn by...

Who cares what his hair looks like? If Jesus could sing... assuming that musical theatre existed back at the turn of the first millenium, he would have sounded like Gavin Creel. If he was lucky.

oh come ON, people! it's clearly MARY POPPINS, with GC doing the chimney sweep -- what's his name? is it Bert? anyhow, the chimney sweep. wearing a cap. and there will be flying kites, too.

At least that's how I read this thread.

Gavin Lee's already been cast as Bert. So unless Gavin's in talks to replace him, which seems a bit premature, Mary Poppins will not be Gavin's next show.

Off topic but leon, your quote about Jesus is hilarious.

Are people getting Gavin Creel and Lee confused? That's what this seems like.

Ah, Tag, you are a genius. I was seriously sitting here questioning why everybody was obsessed with having Gavin Creel play Bert. I, for one, wanted to see him as Marius in Les Mis. Clearly that's not going to happen.

Oops! I didn't know Gavin Lee was already cast as Bert -- I was just going with OuttaTowner's and JimmySF's clues. Sorry for not checking my answer before turning it in!

I'll repeat what I said earlier in the thread - he will return to broadway after a stint in the westend, and the last time I checked, there was a show by the name of Mary Poppins in London...

so does Gavin get to go to London in one of those "trades" between the American and British Actors' Equity Associations, in exchange for a British actor being allowed to perform here? If so, does anyone know who we'll get to see in New York as a result?

My hope (*fingers crossed*) would be for the London SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE to transfer here with Daniel Evans in the lead.

Other possibilities?

I think it may actually be down to Gavin Lee being Bert on broadway, but I'm not 100% positive.

I though Gavin came here in exchange for Chris Sieber doing Spamalot, though that could of course be wrong.

Perfect --

do you know if Gavin Creel will then take over Bert in New York, provided the show runs well?

I think that Simon Russell Beale doing Spamalot on Broadway was part of the exchange for Chris Sieber to be in Spamalot in London.

And it has been suggested that he will be taking over from Gavin Lee on Broadway in 2007.
