Also Chita and Elaine Stritch as Rose in Gypsy. Both in London, but at different times.

Someone else mentioned this and that it wasn’t actually a rumor, but man, Mandy Patinkin would’ve slayed Pierre in Great Comet. I completely understand why he backed out, and even besides the controversy it would’ve been a bit strange having one cast member so much older than everyone else, but I think he would’ve been awesome. Really hope Mandy gets around to another musical before too long. With Homeland out of the way, he should be pretty freed up for one.

NOWaWarning said: "Kim Cattrall as Phyllis in the Kennedy Center run of Follies. I remember her casting was on the BWW home page in the same article that reported Bernadette’s Sally. I’m so so grateful we ended up getting Jan Maxwell’s brilliant, perfect performance, but I’d still love to see Kim tackle the role somewhere. I wonder if that rumor was total nonsense or if Kim was really on board or being courted."

I would have headed to DC for that!
