New Lea Michele/Jonathan Groff/Donna Murphy Project?

This morning, Lea Michele posted a TikTok of her with a script at Ripley-Grier in what seems to be a new workshop featuring her, Jonathan Groff, Donna Murphy, and Anne L. Nathan.

The caption of the post reads, "Hmm what might we be up to…? "

Does anyone have any ideas/inside info about what this could be?

Don't know but sounds more promising than Chess, lol.

Might they just be involved in Lea's Carnegie Hall concert taking place next month?

Oh good call. Or it's a project in early development.

Doubtful there would be a full script for a one-night concert (or rehearsals at Ripley Grier without an orchestra, for that matter).

Is this a hint or a guess?

I don't think this is what it is, but god, a stage adaption of Funny Face with Lea Michele as Jo, Jonathan Groff as Dick, and Donna Murphy as Maggie would be divine.

I could definitely see Lea Michele trying to parlay her success into a new film adaptation. But this would imply that Jonathan Groff is the film's Nick, and I'm not sure about that casting...

And it's a project very early in development, y'all. A table read.
