Brilliant casting. Wow!

I am shocked in the best way possible!! I didn’t think they’d get a real “name” for Kim. I saw it in NY with Victoria and I honestly might be even more excited to see Carmello’s take on it. Wow. What a home run.

WOW! This I would love to see. She'll be great.

Notably, she and Victoria Clark have both played Pennywise in URINETOWN and the Mother Superior in SISTER ACT, and worked together on the First National of LES MIS. (Probably other connections too.)

Any predictions for the rest of the cast? Could Justin Cooley go on the road? I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Jim Hogan and Emily Koch as Buddy and Patty/Deb.

Hopefully she sticks around for year two of the tour. Would love to see her in this when it comes to Chicago.

Chicago could definitely be June 10-22. That’s the only slot left in year 1, between Columbus and Memphis.

Outstanding casting!

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I've got goosebumps. The tour starts here in Denver and I look forward to seeing her in the role. I love her.

I am so glad I don’t have to see this on tour. Her singing for me is like nails on a blackboard. I continue to be mystified that that she has devotees.

Exciting! This is perfect casting. I’m glad we’re in an age when big names like Carolee, Betty Buckley, and Stephanie J. Block go on tour because the material and opportunity is too good to pass up simply because it’s not at “home.”

I also hope we see some of (if not all) the Broadway understudies stepping up as main cast. I thought Emily Koch, Jim Hogan, and Betsy Morgan were all excellent.

She was my first guess, I’m thrilled! Will be completely different from Clark but damn is this exciting.

My guess was Kuhn since she has the Tesori connection, but Carmello is thrilling casting! I can’t wait to hear her sing this score

A london star or American?

Also sad we haven't got to see Annie Golden's take.

Why, wouldn't you know it, you were absolutely correct! Kimberly will play at the CIBC Theatre for those two weeks.
