So.. was there any truth to the Adam Lambert rumors ? The oracle and some posters here were indicating that there would be an announcement early last week. I have done a search and I see nothing.

Take it with a grain of salt, but I asked the gentleman in the box office if the rumors were true, and he confirmed.

It is Adam. It just hasn’t been announced officially. They may be waiting on announcing until the new Sally has been signed. Last I heard Sally was supposed to be Auliʻi Cravalho, but maybe that has changed.

Any knowledge on dates? You think it is right after Eddie leaves? Not a fan of this Cabaret but would go again to see Adam.

Adam was on the Andy Cohen show 2 weeks ago, and said "I got some stuff in the fall, that will take me away from touring."

Honestly that pairing is damn near perfect

Lead Sally yes, tho all of the understudies on Broadway are woc

A few weeks ago understudy Paige Smallwood went on for Sally. I think she was the first black Sally Bowles on Broadway.

I really hope they emphasise Adam Lambert’s vocal ability and he/the director doesn’t try to dress it down in the name of ‘character’ or ‘concept’ or anything. This kind of voice does not appear on stage often - I can’t wait to hear what he can do with it.

The replacements in London have all followed the same vocal path in the show. I am afraid if you're going to watch Adam let loose you might be disappointed.

This is more interesting to me Than the current cast

That's great casting, but if you showed me that pic without their names above I'd have no idea who was pictured.
Good timing for them with Auli'i since she'll also be doing press for MOANA 2 (and appears she has a week off to promote that).

Gonna be a top ticket this Fall for sure.
Posted: 7/24/24 at 12:20pm
Hmm… I love her performances on screen but I’ve seen Auli’i perform live twice now and both times felt she left a lot to be desired in the acting department, but this role is a lot meatier so will keep an open mind.

It’s intriguing casting but I’m not entirely sure how it’ll shake out, box office wise. I assume Lambert has a dedicated fan base that will turn out but I’m not sure about Cravalho being a big draw- people certainly know Moana but they may not know her, specifically. Regardless, I think it’s telling they went with 2 sort of B-list names rather than one A-lister in one of the roles.

I would have sworn this is hilariously bad Photoshop (and I guess it still could be...) but based on Instagram photos they really were photographed in the theater.

I will have to google her, but he is one of the biggest pop stars to star on Broadway in awhile if my memory doesn't fail.

In what universe is Adam Lambert considered a "B Lister"? He's certainly as big (if not bigger) than Nick Jonas.
