They have not started rehearsals because this production is not going up until next May.

"yes spring 2017
For real? This might have serious competition with Frozen.

That would be a real nail-biter, though, seeing two animated movies go toe-to-toe at the Tonys. Can you imagine Ahrens and Flaherty Vs. the Lopezes for Best Score? It would be fierce!
But we don't have a crystal ball, unfortunately, and MUCH can change between now and then.

Does anyone have updates about this yet?
Posted: 9/3/15 at 7:30pm
I'm pretty sure that Angela Lansbury was supposed to be reading for the workshop, but I'm not entirely sure.
Posted: 9/3/15 at 7:51pm
Yes, she did.
And the production at Hartford Stage is still almost a year away. It is too early for updates.

My vote goes for Cheri Oteri for Anastasia. I think she'd be excellent and Cheri can sing.

I think Jennifer Damiano would be a great choice. I think she can easily capture the quirkiness of Anya as well as the grace as she becomes Anastasia.

I kind of think it might be the girl from Rocky/Ever After? I'm blanking on her name, but I think she'd be an interesting fit. Although she wasn't as quirky in Ever After as I would have hoped.

I like the idea of someon like Laura Osnes or Kelli Barrett or maybe Alison Luff
Posted: 10/12/15 at 8:14pm
Alison luff would be perfect

I know it's not possible with her doing School of Rock (at least for the summer 2016 Hartford production), but man, Sierra Boggess would SLAY this role.

I'd love to see Alison Luff. I loved her rendition of "Journey to the Past."

Margo Seibert, and I would love her to play Anya/Anastasia.

Yeah. She'd "slay" that role. She'd kill it with boredom. Poor Anastasia already had a tragic end, why would you want the added insult of Sierra Boggess badly playing her? That is cruel. Just cruel. Sierra Boggess should be making coffee at the Starbucks in Mobile, Alabama.

LOL at the title of the article
I mean... Sure, Michael Riedel.

Michael Riedel has been hating on HAMILTON since its triumphant run at The Public. This man is on a mission to pit down HAMILTON any chance he gets. He's pathetic...and the title of that article is beyond laughable.
