Please consider selecting Megan Meyer as your choice for Roxie in "The Search For Roxie". She is super talented and has a strong, sassy interpretation of the role. https://chicagothemusical.com/roxiecasting

Mary Claire King (Velma Kelly understudy) will perform the role on Sunday, November 10, 2019 (the 2:30 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. shows). This is a good chance to see one of the Velma Kelly understudies shine at the Ambassador. ACL???

It should be non-equity. The tour that begins in January is non-equity and Atlantic City usually only gets non-eq tours. The recent tours of Jersey Boys and Kinky Boots that stopped there were non-equity.

ACL, are you curious about seeing Erika Jayne as Roxie? I'm not really familiar with her, as I don't watch any of the "Real Housewives of _______". Her voice is not bad, at least in the video.

I'm hoping the winner of the Roxie contest will start 3/30 and that they're not paired up with AFW.
