I really hope it's not Jasmine Guy as Priya. The age doesn't match the role, and I really wonder about her after her last stint on Broadway ended so badly. She could never be Priya. Rani, maybe.
Jasmine Guy doesn't thrill me either. She was just okay in "Chicago" and there is better talent out there eager for the role I'm sure. But you know sometimes I suppose they want some sort of recognition name to sell on. We'll know soon.
Any more news yet???
Not yet...but i have the feeling something will be announced soon. I guess we can just guess who the hell is going to star in it!!! probably a bunch of people we have never heard before. I really hope Anajali Bhimani is in the tour reprising the role of Rani(second cast). She was amazing and funny!!! I still feel bad because my pic with her never came out.
I still didn't give up on the idea of Tamyra Gray doing the tour, even tho she probably won't do it. She said on her website that being on Broadway is exausting and that she didn't have time to do anything. Even the days she had only 1 show.
Well I hope they reveal something soon, anyway - the show will be great!
Well at least we do know that Jasmine Guy won't be in BoMbAy DrEaMs, I actually agree she would be kinda old to play Pryia.
No, I just heard she is touring in a play - I cannot remember the name but I'm not a Jasmine fan either. Wasn't she from "Moesha"?
"Moesha" with Brandy? LOL
Jasmine was in Dead Like Me...
What day does Bombay open? It's less than a month away, there should be announcements...
it opens on FEB 19th in Tucson....yeah...this is out of control! they should announce the cast and the website for once!!! then it will play on FEB 22nd in Costa Mesa,CA (Los Angeles Area) tickets are on sale on www.broadwayacrossamerica.com they have tix from 20 bucks!
LA guys...don't miss it!
I think that is where Jasmine Guy was first seen ("Moesha"), Then they gave her a spinoff of her own. Brandy sure vanished from sight - Maybe she is in "Bombay Dreams", lol, just joking.
I never much liked Jasmine Guy on "Moesha" the few times I saw it either. She was this black girl with a strange voice & attitude and that was about it.
Muscle, Where is the tour to start?
in Tucson, AZ Feb the 19th then it will be playing in Costa Mesa CA for like 2 weeks.
actually on the 18th of Feb in Tucson.

Here's a few tidbits
Sachin Bhatt (Akaash)
Sandra Allen (Rani)
Reshma Shetty (Priya)
Deep Katdare (Vikram and Originated on Broadway)
Aneesh Sheth (Sweetie)
tnks theatrepaz! finally...!!!
"Bombay Dreams" remains the only show I ever walked out on. Saw it in London and loved it. The broadway production was almost as bad as the OBC of "Chess".
who was Vikram in the show?
well...it seems the Tour will be a mix between the London and Broadway production. So it will be amazing!!!

Vikram is the seemingly good lawyer who is engaged to Priya.
oh i remember now! tnks again theatrespaz.
and Follies...i walked never walk out on any show, many times I feel like doing it, and actually at the end of Bombay Dreams everything turns around, so it's not too smart walking out on this show. Anyhow I wanted to walk out while seeing many shows, The lion king, Movin Out, Sweeney Todd, DRS, The producers, BKLYN and many others. Still i paid for all the shows i saw, so i stay till the end and hoping it will have a good ending. Some shows actually get better by the end.

I've only wanted to walk out on 42nd Street, it was a non-equity tour, so I guess nothing was "up to par" but still, the show sucked. Why didn't you like the other shows? Esp, DRS and Producers?
I didn't like DRS becuz the show is about people stealing and that doesn't seem very funny to me. The Producers...i hate to see people laughing at someone for being gay. And i hate the gay stereotype.
