I literally screamed when I read this headline. McTeer back on Broadway--hell yes!
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body

This is actually incredible.
And I love how they're working their way through the British company. Will Ralph Fiennes be next?

Also, very interesting to see Jeff Daniels get the role originally played by James Gandolfini.

Wow. Is that a mistake? Daniels is going to play Michael this time?

How TRUE WEST of Daniels.
Liu is, in a word (or two), the sh*t.
McTeer is one of the greatest actresses of her generation.
You done good. casting directors of GOC!

Wow. A very interesting cast this time around. Not only do I love the idea that they keep bringing back original cast members (Daniels in a different role and McTeer from London - possibly my favorite part), but the two new additions are intriguing. Dylan Baker is good in the small parts he is usually given and I'm interested in seeing what he does with such a meaty role. I'm also really excited about Lucy Liu on stage. I love that I've already seen this with the original cast, since now I can picture various scenes with this new cast.

I'm holding out until they have an all-Muppet cast.

I literally just screamed. This cast excites me more than the OBC did. Lucy Liu and Janet McTeer on the SAME STAGE?! Holy f**k!!

Lucy Liu is one of my favorite comedic actors, due to her role, Ling, on Ally McBeal. I hope this is still open when I come back to the city.

I am flattered PG
Unfortunately, I am not physically right for the Michael role & simply do not fit the other role either. You could play the sofa however although it might be tough for you.
Saw it last week & looks like the new cast would have been better but such is life as they say. It was enjoyable but not Best Play material IMO.

PG-
The "fat hawaiian guy" is Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, who actually died in 1997 due to a weight-related respiratory illness.
If you're gonna mock someone, and a show, at least have a little class when you do it.

husk, obviously I wouldn't have made the joke if I had known he died. I was only drawing on the increasingly random casting for this show. It was obviously an honest mistake, so saying I have no class is a little overboard.
