The emotions the casts will feel going into their theatres again and putting on their costumes and doing the staging again.... Wow. Excited to watch, preparing myself to be emotional.

Not Necessarily

“In line with safety protocols, the musical performances won't necessarily feature full casts, and staging, as explained by Ain't Too Proud's Tony-winning choreographer Sergio Trujillo, will be reworked with social distancing in mind.”

Wondering if the performances will be more like staged concerts. Excited to watch these performances, nonetheless

It won't be any big numbers. Probably just whoever can attend can also just watch and sing offstage.

Wonder if NBC is still doing their broadway special they announced a while back.

Same here. However, wouldn't be surprised If they left it at this.

Interesting that JAGGED is the only Tony nominated show performing.

Tina performed last year so maybe that's why they aren't? I know Mean Girls did too, but that was 2 years ago. Not to mention it's NBC's parade and we know who's behind Mean Girls.

I wish there was some Moulin Rouge action coming, but alas...

Really curious to see who will perform with Mean Girls because of the giant cast change over that happened right before the shut down. And I'm REALLY curious to see who plays Cady in the segment (Not gonna lie, I'm really hoping for Sabrina Carpenter to perform just to give us some glimpse of what she is like in the role, but I also wouldn't mind if it was Erika. I just highly doubt she would do it after leaving the show.)

Maybe NBC is waiting to hear when the Tony's will be before announcing their Broadway special?

I'm eager to catch a glimpse of Sabrina's Cady, Renée's Regina, and/or any of the changes Mean Girls underwent before the shutdown. I also hope Hamilton does "Yorktown," it would be so perfectly timed at this political moment in U.S. history.

Here's hoping NBC also follows through with their rumored B'way special. The more shows, the merrier!

Does anyone have any info on any of the casts? I know there are some detectives on here lol.

With this now less than two weeks away, I have to imagine these shows will have to rehearse. Anyone with inside info on who's back in NYC?

I’m not sure who it was, but I saw a TikTok from

one of the members of Hamilton at the theatre for his fitting.

Danielle Wade and MKM are playing Cady and Janis.
Renee and the ensemble boy from Broadway as well.

Dang. I was actually really looking forward to seeing Olivia as Janis, but MKM works too.

A.R.T. just posted a video to their social medias with what looked like the majority of the JAGGED cast waiting in the lobby of the Marquis hotel. It appeared they were off to film their segment as everyone was mic'd up.

I won't post it because the footage is private, unclevictor, but Hamilton actors were recorded in costume and dancing in the street, using the Hamilton choreography.

Hamilton filmed their segment right outside the Richard Rodgers yesterday
