Does anyone know if there is a way to hear about performers who are making their Broadway Debuts? I'm not talking just the big stars and principal roles, I also mean people who are cast as replacements in currently running shows in all aspects, whether it be as a principal, ensemble, or swing. If anyone knows of how to keep track, please let me know!

I don't know but I know if you follow the cast of certain shows on Instagram they will post about some people making their Broadway debuts. Like I follow the WHOLE cast of Hamilton on instagram and they always update us on stuff like that. This new production of west side story that's coming out (the one with that huge issue about not casting a POC in a POC role) will probably show who is making their Broadway debut in West side story on Instagram!

linnamonrole, are you confusing a concert in London with a nonexistent upcoming WSS Broadway revival?

Oh haha.  I guess. I didn't realize there was a Broadway in London!

Internet Broadway Database is your best bet. They clearly indicate below a cast member's name both for the OBC and replacements when they are making their Broadway debut.
