Sounds like the cast list will be released on 2/10, so won’t have to speculate much longer!

As everythingtaboo already reported an hour before you posted. Thanks, taboo. How very exciting!

Sutton, correct about Taboo posting. However, until you posted the only way I was able to see Taboo's post was to comment on something. I almost posted about Brightman. Something is up with the forums. It's been like this for me for a while.

That sucks, really? My apologies then.

When it gets to end of the page after the 25th post, it takes a couple of posts after the 26th to push it to a new page, so that people can actually see it. It's very annoying.

Just Brightman gets announced? I guess we find out everyone else tomorrow.

It’s an issue every 25 posts.

Yes, that's what I meant. I guess I should have said "each" page.

The best part is that it’s not even the person who posted fighting, it’s someone else hahahaha

Just popping back in here to say that I have NO idea why my previous post was deleted. I did absolutely nothing wrong, and broke no rules. When I screw up enough to warrant a post getting deleted, I generally own up, and ask no questions. But that is not the case in this thread; I did nothing wrong here.

In any event, I'm thrilled that Alex is coming back.

That's weird, what did you post?

Finally public knowledge that Elizabeth Teeter is the new Lydia. 

She unintentionally hinted at this (that she was cast and set to start rehearsals before the shutdown) on a podcast and it was easy to put the pieces together, especially with Kerry commenting on her instagram recently. 

Congrats to her and all cast members!

Such a diverse cast !!

Seems like they're no longer having Kritzer double as Miss Argentina. That's a strange change.

EDIT: On second thought, maybe it's not so strange if they're trying to avoid having a large cluster of people in one spot helping her with the quick change? Still, it'll be sad not to see her perform Miss Argentina's number.

Equally annoying about this forum glitch, I couldn't even go back to edit and add the link I mean to include.

Is the website down for anyone else or just me?

It is EARLY. Shows have finite advertising budgets and it would be a waste to spend a lot on advertising in the dead of winter/Omicron when perfs don't begin for 2 more months.

Their best stroke of luck is that the old BEETLEJUICE billboard on 46th Street hasn't been taken down by another advertiser (assuming they haven't been paying for that since March 2020).

Ah yes. Alas I wasn't keeping up with the news prior to the cast actually being announced...

I'm hoping this is sarcasm.

Re: Miss Argentina - Leslie talks about it on the most recent episode of Josh Lamon’s podcast Josh Swallows Broadway. Seems like it came down to she just didn’t want to do both and it was a nice way to give an ensemble member a feature. She hints that she didn’t want to come back at all but couldn’t pass up doing just Delia.

I was just wondering whatever happened to Zonya Love. I hadn't heard her name come up at all since closing out The Color Purple all those years ago.
