I want Michael Arden for Doodie.

If Max lost, they would have offered him Doody, but I believe they had a Doody.

I am worried this version is going to be more like the movie and less like the Original Broadway show. Espc. with the abscense of Doodie (and I know for a fact that one was cast). I mean, "those Magic Changes" is one of the best songs in the show.
Hmmm...without a Doody at this late stage? Makes you wonder if this story didn't have some truth to it...
Is Max a Danny or a Doody?
i definetly think they were waiting to see if max would get it or not because he would have been perfect for that role.
im sure they have a back-up.
Matt Saldivar from The Wedding Singer as Kenickie

Grease is suppose to be a spoof
Apparently in most productions: The only young people are Danny and Sandy. The rest are played by adults.
it looks to me (based off david ian's reaction to max winning, and the age of the rest of the cast) they absolutely planned for austin to win.
I know Christina Sivrich (from TWS) got cast in the show in the ensemble and the u/s for someone.

Jay Klaitz, and that's what I thought, as well.

Jose Restrepo is Sonny.

I'm beginning to think that the purpose of this revival was just to give work to former cast members of The Wedding Singer...
Sonny was Jose Restrepo. I don't think that Austin would be a good Doody. Has the guy playing Rodger been in Avenue Q as Brian?
The ppl. playing the rest of the cast might not have make-up on! That could make them look younger. Even the cast in the movie were old but still had a good image!
I wish they'd actually said their names instead of character names. Jenny was the only one I recognized, basically leaving me with knowing three cast members besides Danny/Sandy.
I'm really not seeing Jenny Powers as Rizzo, or Alison Fischer as Patty.
Can't they just post a cast list?
Glad for Laura and Max though.
"I know Christina Sivrich (from TWS) got cast in the show in the ensemble and the u/s for someone. "
I just died.
I love Christina!
"Has the guy playing Rodger been in Avenue Q as Brian? "
That was my first reaction when he came on.
I was like "Brian from Avenue Q?"

Including Alison Fischer, who only a year ago was a 16-year-old 10-year-old?

Jenny Powers is Rizzo? THAT'S why she looked so familiar. I kept trying to place her while I ate my dinner. The cast looks good...I may actually go see it.
