Plus Schneider remained director just in credit, others have written on here that the show was actually staged by someone else since Schneider was quickly fired.
I'm hoping that the change of directors doesn't mean a change in Deloris. People on ATC are also saying there's a rumor she won't be making the move (but I think they are also basing it off the casting notice).
Two things, could it be for a stand-by? Or could it just be some Equity technicality that tells them they need to advertise the role even if it has been cast? Can someone shed light on this, I just can't imagine Patina Miller not making the move, it seems like she gave a star-making performance in London and it'd be really strange for them to hire an American actress, take her to London and then keep her from doing the Broadway run.
LaChanze looks gorgeous for her age but she's too old for the role as written.
