I edited my post to take out the Kimball/Murney innacurcy because Murney/Diggs weren't in Lennon together.

I'm confused on the game. We're connecting performers who were in shows together right? Menzel and Diggs were in Rent and Wild Party, next we'd need to find someone who was in Wild Party AND another show with Diggs right?

I thought we needed to find a performer who was in that same show, but also looks the same and has a similar vibrato.

Basically the reason for the confusion was becuase of the choice of Taye Diggs, though Idina was also in Wild Party, the new show (Wild Party) did not need to include the previous performer.

So person A was in show A with person B.
Person B was in show B with person C.
Person C was in show B with person D, etc...

To use Broadway people/shows as an ex.

Patti LuPone was in Evita with Mandy Patinkin
Mandy Patinkin was in Sunday... George with Bernadette Peters
Bernadette Peters was in Into the Woods with Chip Zien
Chip Zien... etc...

Steve Blanchard was in THE THREE MUSKETEERS with Marianne Tatum.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married.
