Nothing has been posted officially, but the cast SEEMS to be intact.

Since tix went on sale to AE cardholders, I can't imagine too much longer of an announcement.

Rebecca Naomi Jones is still in, at least as far as she is concerned.

Matt Caplan will not be continuing with the show to Broadway.


Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

John Gallagher Jr and Gerard Canonico seem to be set to reprise their roles, as does Brian Charles Johnson.

Also, Leslie McDonel (formerly of Hairspray on Broadway and the Legally Blonde tour) will be joining the company.

I think Tony Vincent is going to return to the show. He posted on facebook that he was coming back to Broadway. So, I'm guessing he will be in American Idiot. :)

Wow. I'm also surprised about Matt Caplan (if it's true).

Anybody know why Matt Caplan isn't continuing with the show? Is a choice of his or the show?
