Lea Michele and Jon Groff are too old. But they probably can't hire minors for the roles. Lea Michele might be a box office draw because of glee. I can't really tell if "gleeks" will follow her work outside of the TV show.

If they do it, you know Lea will be in it. Because she wants attention and they want money. Face it she is a box office draw. If they have her, they might use the rest of the original cast. I want a new cast maybe. If they do use the original cast my sister will go wild. She is in love with Jonathan and Lea.

^ Love it......and Loretta Switt of course!
^ Now THAT I would pay to see.
I love you, Jordan. You have the best suggestions EVER. I do wonder what Broadway would be like if you were a casting director.
It would be a spectacular place indeed.
