From what I've been hearing/reading, Harvey Fierstein is planning to depart on May 8th (save for an extension). I was wondering who else would be apt to play the role of Albin/Zaza.

I would love Nathan Lane, or possibly at some point, Tony Sheldon (seeing as how he was amazing in PRISCILLA).

David Engel, who played Hanna of Hamburg in the original La Cage,has played Albin/ZsaZsa regionally. His performance at MTW in Long Beach, CA is one of the most brilliant musical theatre performances I've ever seen- and I've seen hundreds of productions in NY, London, Chicago and LA.

This distresses me as I bought Cabaret Table seats for this May 18th just to see Harvey (I've seen it twice with the original cast). When they announced Harvey for the show they said how long he was going to be in it and I counted up on a calendar to make sure and it seemed to me like the amount of time took him through sometime in June and through to when they released tickets on TeleCharge. Is he leaving early and if so why? Plus if he was leaving so soon I would think a replacement would have been announced.

I would love to see Denis O'Hare in the role - but considering the numbers, I doubt the production will survive after Harver leaves ...,.. if it lasts that long.
